Abstract
Coube à Direção Geral do Ultramar enquanto parte da Secretaria de Estado da Marinha e do Ultramar a administração dos negócios do ultramar. Conheceu, durante a sua vigência, vários momentos de especialização e reforma sendo a protagonizada pelo Ministro Rebelo da Silva determinante a vários níveis. Até então não se tinha verificado na administração colonial portuguesa uma ação remodeladora tão vasta implementando, inclusive, medidas inéditas como a criação de colónias penais no ultramar para cumprimento de pena de degredo. Com esta adição tornou-se responsabilidade da Direção Geral do Ultramar o registo central de degredados. Através da análise da documentação em arquivo histórico pretende este artigo explorar os registos de degredados, no período compreendido entre 1870 - 1910, analisando o circuito documental associado.
