Roteiro da primeira viagem do Monarcha steam from a cidade da Barra do Rio Black, Capital da do Amason Province: tied to Povoação Nauta, na Republica do Peru As
we mentioned in previous post, German immigrants brought by Joseph Antolin Rodulfo the destination had not been offered. Least one group of immigrants attracted by the land on mountain land according to law are handed over to settle in the Amazon region, marched in two expeditions to the east of the Andes, in the present department of Loreto. I have commented on their fate in the previous two post. But the Peruvian version, according to the sources I could access.
few days ago, surfing the web, I found this project to digitize Harvard where public access has placed a series of nineteenth century books, including this: Roteiro da primeira viagem do Monarcha steam from a cidade da Barra do Rio Black, Capital da do Amason Province: tied to Povoação Nauta, na Republica do Peru. Black River [Brazil]: Typ. Ramos MS, 1855, written by João Wilkens de Mattos, 1 Marauiá Baron of the Empire of Brazil, and Governor of the Province of Amason. This travelogue describes the experiences made during the navigation of the Amazon from the Atlantic to the Peruvian port of Iquitos and Nauta in 1854. As expected, the settlers mentioned expeditions Monteza (Montezal) and Ijurra.
Caballococha Port
One of the earliest mentions is on page 21, which mentions the presence of an Italian "emigrated from Peru", settled in the town of Ega and is dedicated to run a tutoring center, so I conclude that his profession would have been a teacher or at least would have a degree, some education schooling. No mention that it was a peasant or farmer.
During the trip also mentioned the presence of vapors "Tirado" and "Huallaga", commanded to bring from the U.S. to ply the Amazon, in Peru as in the Empire of Brazil, thanks to the trade agreement signed years before the date Mattos Travel (1854) and the steamer "Huallaga" was with flaws that prevented navigation, being the "Shot" the one who performed the navigation route, fetching and carrying commercial goods, passengers, mail, etc. The steamer "Monarch" in which Matt is traveling repeatedly to the "Shot" along its route, both in the Brazilian Amazon and in Peru.
Nauta
March 24 Caballococha reach (Cavallococho), estimating the population at 200 people, mostly ethnic Indians Ticuna. He mentions the colony brought by Manoel Ijurra (then Civil Governor of Loreto) of 70 immigrants of different nationalities to found an agricultural colony, which have no resources or facilities in a "ainda uneducated" in addition to not being able to withstand the plagues of mosquitoes, most had moved to Lima and Brazil, leaving the colony reduced to 24 people date (at the end, according to Genaro Herrera, settlers would be only 3, two Germans and a Frenchman).
Mattos abounds on this colony in 1874:
" ... compõe-be home of dusi meia, e tem uma Egreja, which peut être reputed among as melhores da province. Faz part do Loreto e é District um administered tenente-Governor. I give people circunscripção Horse-cocha Mota 370, sendo 189 male and 181 nouns. The distance of the port of Loreto to 40.74 kilometers. It was founded in 1813 by the vicar C. Flowers with Ticuna Indians and Brazilians entering the number d 'such profugos some who will take part in the murder of Captain Nin, a former commander of the border of Tabatinga.
In the year 1853, Don Manuel Ijurra attempted to found a colony aggrícola this town, back to Lima 70 individuals, but their exforços were hardly succeed each other, because of Excessive amount of pests that there n'est location, and because the settlers did not to provide the desired end. EXCEED elles of different nationalities, and proffisões, fewer farmers. Before the colony is, begin settlers to leave it behind you-a, in sorte that within pouces mezes Só restava Lembrança two sacrifices made recently to hair or transport d'Paiz com esse heterogenous group of individuals com os util quaes Poderia be added feito. "
The March 26 Pebas arrives, he mentions the presence of a family "Francez", as a relic of immigrants brought by José Montezal from Lima to found an agricultural colony (possibly referred to the family of Jose Flores, also mentioned by Herrera) . The Nauta 29 is, where is a relatively prosperous, with some Portuguese who had been installed in short supply cattle that provided "Leite em plenty." Here, Mattos also mention that it in 1853 José Montezal brought a party of 113 immigrants from different nations and professions (except farmers), which were soon retired to Lima or to Brazil, settling some in Sao Paulo de Olivenca, Ega, and in Barra, where some had been employed by the Brazilian presidency in public works jobs with good pay, and others had refused to work.
By day 31 were received by the Governor Francisco Ortiz, who entertained as emissaries of the Empire of Brazil, and that is where they decide to start back. During the event, saturate in S. Paulo de Olivenca and found two German families of the issuance of Monteza, who had settled in place and where the Governor had provided them with transportation and subsistence, knowing that they lived on public charity.
As we see, fate was adverse to them also in this group of German Rodulfo, who undertook a journey that even in modern times is hard, looking for happiness offered during the conference in Germany in 1851.
