At the end of the 19th century and beginning of the XX century, Brazil received thousands of Italian families who settled in the Brazilian land, mainly in the Southeast and South regions of Brazil. Within the Southeast Region, São Paulo was the state that received the most number of families from Italy who settled on the coffee farms in substitution of the slave labor that suffered its decay with the several laws elaborated to end this type of exploitation. During this period (late nineteenth and early twentieth) the Rio Claro region had its importance in the coffee sector, therefore, many families came from the port of Santos to the farms of the region and helped in the development of the city of Rio Claro. The Santana district, formed mostly by Italian families, stands out for its dynamism in the Rio-Clarense municipality. This research aims to demonstrate the importance of these Italian families in the economic development of the Santana district
