CAMPO CEMETERY
FINAL RESTING PLACE OF MANY OF THE SOUTHERN COLONISTS WHO SETTLED THIS PART OF BRAZIL
Campo is a tree-shaded one square hectare compound separated from the surrounding cane fields by a low wall. The enclosure includes three buildings. A covered patio is located near the entrance, and off to the side stands the modest home of a caretaker family. The small brick chapel dominates the center of the compound, and the cemetery stretches over the back portion of the grounds. The sidewalk leading up to the church entrance is flanked by an obelisk-shaped monument that is decorated with the stars and bars of the Confederate battle flag. The monument features the engraved names of the families who moved to the Santa Barbara area in the 1860s.
The cemetery contain the remains of many of the original settlers and their descendants. Gravestones are inscribed with references to the old country Confederacy and comments about their new home in Brazil. The sign of the Masonic Lodge, to which several Americans belonged, is prominently displayed on some of the markers.
The Fraternity of American Descendants was established in 1954, and ownership of the compound was passed to the fraternity by the Bookwalter family. The organization oversees the maintenance of Campo and schedules quarterly and yearly reunions that draw descendants from across Brazil. These gatherings harken back to the old days by featuring dinner on the grounds and nineteenth-century America-style clothing. Most participants speak in Portuguese, but many of the older generation still use English. Pageantry abounds, some of the youth dress as Confederate soldiers and ladies, and the conversations are laced with stories of the past. The festivities conclude with a church service that according to the fraternity bylaws, must be held in a religion of the original founders, and the hymn "There s a Happy Land" is sung in unison by all.
Campo, still a community unifier, now plays a new role. The site originated as a stopgap solution to the im-mediate necessity of burying the dead, and over the years it became a social and religious community center for the scattered families near Santa Barbara. During the early years it was a site of ceremony and pleasant fellow-ship. It provided a familiar setting in a foreign land, as if a small bit of Alabama territory had been transplanted to Sao Paulo. It was neutral ground where inter-colony political or religious differences were put aside. At Campo, the individuals in the group again became one colony of displaced Americans far from their native soil. Campo developed in the location that was most accessible to all the settlers in the Confederate settlements scattered around Santa Barbara.
Today, the role of Campo is different. It is now, in many respects, a shrine to the memory of the adventurers who left their defeated states and created a new home in Brazil. As with other shrines, it has no other function. Though a blood descendant can still petition for burial in the cemetery, funerals are rare. Regular church ser-vices are no longer held, and most descendants live elsewhere.
During recent years Campo has become hollowed ground. There the heritage is nurtured, and the descending generations are instructed in its importance. The displaced artifacts and symbols recall the heritage. The battle flag and uniform of the Confederacy have quite a different meaning from their significance in the United States. The symbols are not strongly associated with the battles of the Civil war, nineteenth-century political contro-versies, a slave-based economy, or contemporary racial discrimination. To the American descendants born in Brazil, the signs of the Old South evoke memories of founding origin more akin to North American recollections of the arrival of early European pilgrims. Similarly, the gravestones in the cemetery recall the heroes of the early years and provide stark evidence of the hardships they faced.
Campo is a shrine with special meaning only to the descendants. Though reunions are sometimes reported in the local or national press, the behavior of the descendants is viewed with no more than mild interest. Campo is not marked on maps, and it can be reached only by traveling over a pitted narrow dirt road through cane fields. No signs show the way, and few local residents can provide directions.
In summary, Campo is a present feature on the landscape that has no importance other than to serve as a repository for the shared symbols that identify he American descendant as a distinct group within the larger Brazilian culture. It is at this site, on the occasion of the quarterly and yearly reunions, that the articles and traditions that identify the group are reviewed and renewed. Located on private property until 1954 and on community land since, it has always functioned as common ground not liked to any specific faction within the group.
The periodic gatherings, first out of necessity, then later for pleasure, were a mechanism for preserving the common culture. Though English as a first language will disappear with the passage of the current generation, other traits are being continued because of the periodic reunions. The old stories of valor, the physical artifacts, the Southern recipes, the festival traditions, and the religious practices are recalled and passed on to the next generation. Of the many settlements started in Brazil by the Americans, only those around Santa Barbara had a separate site for maintaining the cultural heritage. And only there have the Americans remained connected to their history.
The current state of good maintenance and attractiveness f the Campo site and the well-attended reunions indicate that the heritage is being preserved. A museum celebrating the early Americans in Brazil has recently been opened in downtown Santa Barbara, but the soul of the group remains out at the chapel and cemetery. Its future survival may be questioned, but traces of the Old American South have persisted in Brazil longer than anyone would have guessed possible.

This list now presented is a summary of the book:
* Betty Antunes de Oliveira - North American Immigration to Brazil - Tombstone Records of the "Campo" Cemetery - Santa Barbara - Sao Paulo State - Brazil, particular edition. - Brasilia, Grafica do Senado Federal, 1978. - 68 p. - Ill.
- 150 pictures (views, tombstones, chapel). Topographical map showing the
position of the graves in the yard, about 430.
* The book was microfilmed by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
Salt Lake City. Utah, U.S.A., 1981, under Latin America # 1.162.423.
Purpose of this list
* The purpose of the list bellow is to assist in finding immigrants that moved from the United States of America to Brazil, after the Civil War. The first group landed Rio de Janeiro on 1st January 1867. It is not known how many came and how many went back home!
* The complete list of names reveals a total of about 430 graves, since July
13, 1868 to 1978, being the last, when the book was published.
* But, this partial list (in alphabetical order, by surnames) includes the
names of those immigrants, with their children, and also those who were born in Brazil, only until December 31, 1899.
North American Cemetery known as Campo Cemetery
* The Cemetery started in July 13, 1868, when Mrs. Beatrice E. Oliver died. The widower A.T. Oliver decided that she had to be buried in his own land.
* At that time, the Brazilian law didn't permit any non-Roman-Catholic person to be buried in the official cemeteries. This situation remained by November 15th, 1889, when Brazil became a Republic.
* The number of known graves could be larger if the lost Book of Burials had been located. No one knows how many have been buried there. About 70 graves aren't identified, but, by several sources, we have found out data for some of them, which names are separately in the end of the list below. Unfortunately, for others, marks no longer exist any more.
* Some immigrants moved to another places nearby, or far away, so, left their beloved behind. Few were transferred from where they were buried.
* It is a historical mark for both countries, United States of America and Brazil. The site is located at Santa Barbara (today Santa Barbara D'Oeste) Sao Paulo State, Brazil, in a place called Campo, in a sugar-cane plantation, about 12 kilometers from that city and also from the city of Americana (former Santa Barbara Station railroad).
