General Notes
He got married with "Cecília Barbosa Terra" who had heired
part of the "Bela Aurora" farm, a huge and tradicional farm which had many slaves. But the poor agriculture technology and the lack of slaves caused by the slavery abolition law, which had been aproved in Brazil in 1888 led to a poverty situation.
The world economic collapse after 1929-1930 may have worsened the economic condition in the most farms of Brazil
He was forced to sell some of the land, year after year. Eventually he was forced to sell the main house where his wife's ascendants had lived in for the last 100 years.
He decided to move with his entire family to Rio de Janeiro's suburbs (Bangu).
In "Rio de Janeiro" he had a hard time.
