Family history Marquês de Barbacena

Marquis of Barbacena

Die Geschichte der Familie Caldeira Brant verbindet europäische Herkunft mit dem Aufstieg Brasiliens zur unabhängigen Monarchie. Nach den Unterlagen des Staatsarchivs von Minas Gerais begann der brasilianische Zweig mit Jan van Brabant, der 1643 in Antwerpen geboren wurde. Als Konsul in Lissabon nahm er den Namen João Caldeira Brant an. Sein Sohn Ambrósio zog nach Brasilien und begründete dort eine Familie, die im Bergbau, Handel und öffentlichen Leben von Minas Gerais Ansehen gewann.

Aus diesem Umfeld stammte Felisberto Caldeira Brant Pontes de Oliveira e Horta, geboren 1772 in Mariana. Sein Großvater war am Diamantenwesen beteiligt, sein Vater besaß Goldbergwerke. Felisberto studierte an den königlichen Marineakademien in Lissabon, diente anschließend in Angola und wandte sich nach seiner Rückkehr nach Brasilien dem Handel in Bahia zu. Durch seine Ehe mit Ana Constança Guilhermina de Castro Cardoso verbanden sich zwei einflussreiche Familien.

Felisberto’s greatest task occurred during the period of Brazilian independence. As a skilled ambassador in London, he negotiated international recognition and financial matters for the young empire. In 1825, Pedro I appointed him Visconde and in 1826 Marquês de Barbacena. Later, he served as Senator, Council of State, and Minister of Finance. Another glorious mission took him to Europe, where he mediated the Emperor’s marriage to Amélie of Leuchtenberg.

Auch die nächste Generation blieb dem öffentlichen Leben verbunden. Sein Sohn Felisberto wurde Visconde de Barbacena und wirkte als Diplomat und Politiker; Pedro Caldeira Brant erhielt den Titel Conde de Iguaçu und bewahrte die Familiengeschichte in genealogischen Aufzeichnungen.

Briefe, Amtsakten und Familienpapiere machen die Caldeira Brant heute zu einem besonders anschaulichen Kapitel brasilianischer Geschichte. Ihr Vermächtnis erzählt von Unternehmergeist, Diplomatie und dem Aufbau eines neuen Staates zwischen Minas Gerais, Bahia, Rio de Janeiro und Europa.
