This paper had been made in the research topic of regional history. There was as objective to examine the historical experiences of the captive women from Paraíba province. Also, making women’s presence in the trade of enslaved people in the province and their actions to achieve freedom, mainly through escape, between 1850(effective end of the Atlantic traffic) and 1888 (abolition of slavery in Brazil). Besides that, we tried to understand how was the process of commercialization of captives in the province was carried out by observing the values of taxes, regulations, who participated in this trade, the place where the captive was transferred, among other issues.

The last decades of the twentieth century were know by an intense sociopolitical transformations that allowed the social visibility of women and the black population, and the incorporation of them as themes in the historiographic production, mainly, from the 1980s.
