This text proposes to disseminate the partial results of the ongoing investigation into the artistic and pedagogical activities of  Portuguese guitarists and their descendants established in  Brazil between 1875 and 1875. The data and documents collected in the literature review, in Brazilian and Portuguese repositories and digital collections, demonstrated that Maria Lívia São Marcos – belonging to the group of descendants - occupied a prominent place in the artistic development of the classical guitar in Brazil, with relevant performances in the field of teaching, performance, and photographic production. The aim is, therefore, to present information that will contribute to the composition of the artistic and pedagogical memory of  Maria  Lívia  São  Marcos and, consequently, to studies on the historical path of the classical guitar in Brazil and its connections with Portugal.
