Studies on captive families in Brazil have gained prominence in recent decades, revealing social and strategic meanings of these unions. The interest for the subject is recurrent, since the territorial scope of Brazil allows many studies to develop on the subject. With the use of documentary and ecclesiastical documents it is possible to diagnose the presence of captive families in many localities. Espírito Santo, a small province and with little prominence in the national scenario, presents a profound diversity in the composition of its slavery: in Vitoria the captive Creole population prevailed, while in the South, agroexportadora, there were large numbers of Africans. When speaking of this region, however, the studies are summarized the locality of Cachoeiro, in the Vale do Rio Itapemirim. This work was intended to give visibility to the region of Itapemirim, located at the mouth of this river, which was formed by a large number of captives, but never had its slavery properly studied. Thus, we tried to identify the captive families of the region and the importance of the endogenous reproduction for the reproduction of the slave society.
