Brazil Digitized Civil Records

This is my third post on Brazil, however, it is about many different types of records that are available online.

The records covering Brazil are extensive and the best part is that they are available for free to review.  Since they make the records available at no charge, I ask that you volunteer for one of the many projects they have to help others in their research.  To help, simply click on the Indexing link at the top of the website.

So now back to Brazil, these links are descriptive below and go beyond just civil records.  The miscellaneous records for the Rio Grande do Sul contain marriage records as well as court records.  This is a goldmine of information as it has close to 3 million records for those of you researching your ancestry in such a large country.  As previously posted on prior posts, visit https://genealogianuestra.com/2017/01/where-to-find-church-records-for-us.html to understand how to view the records, it’s an easy to follow tutorial.

So now that you have viewed the above post, here are the digitized images for church records throughout Brazil.  Hopefully, you read my prior post for Brazil.

Many of these links have searchable databases so I recommend that you use both options.
If you’re looking for ancestors that entered the country at some point in time, here are some records for different States in Brazil.
Here are some burial records that are available online:
Finally, last but far from minimizing them, the following are civil registration records available.

I hope this post is helpful in your research in Brazil.
