Quixeramobim is a name of aboriginal origin, however it is not known to the certainty of which tribe. For cause of this some meanings exist as: Green bird, fat meat and hand saw of water.
The commercial interchange with the Aracati, until the end of the passed century, was accented well. For this maritime port they penetrate the settlers of the "sertões" of our flag-ship. Leaving of Pernambuco, they reached the Ceará passing however for the Paraíba, however for the great River of the North, what it transformed Aracati, not only for the way of penetration, but also in point of draining.
To they converged the traders there, in fetching of merchandises in order to supply the local commerce, at the same time where they made to drain for that port the products of the hinterland, over all the charqueadas ones, that they were embarked for the neighboring flag-ships.
A commercial warehouse was that coast city sufficiently considerable. The plugging with that coast city comes since the time of the Farm of Saint Antonio, therefore indications of this link in the will of Antonio Dias meet Ferreira. Some can think that Quixeramobim if dismembered of Aracati. But this is not truth, Quixeramobim kept only one well accented commercial interchange with this city. In addition, the settlers of the creek of the Quixeramobim had come of Aracati, that received them from Pernambuco, Paraíba and Rio Grande of the North.
Notwithstanding everything this the city of Quixeramobim belonged to the Village of Is Jose de Ribamar of the Aquiraz until its rise the village, what it one more time confirms with wing transcriptions that if follow:
To the listener Manuel de Magalhães Pinto de Avelar de Barbedo " it fit to it to install the Village of Bigger Field of Quixeramobim, until then pertaining the Aquiraz, the 13 of June of 1789 ". Invoking documents that compose the Auto one of erection of the Village, still intitled, in " IT SPEAKS to the PEOPLE ", pronounced for the Dr. Listener Geral and Corregedor of the Judicial district, in the day of the inauguration of the Village, what it follows: " I established and deliver the Municipal governância to you of this territory, with all the privileges, honors and exemptions of the Village of Aquiraz, of that it desannexed". With these citations, the doubts on the subject are extinct.
In the reality the "sertões" of Quixeramobim are constituted of vast fields that if not only extend in the valley of the river, but that they are prolongated for adjacent plains. Beyond vast, the fields are beautiful that meet there. However, on the name Bigger Field given to the population of Saint Antonio of the Big hole, the historical truth is upper-class other. By prompt of the marquis of Pigeon house, first minister of D. José I, was forwarded a Regal Letter, dated of 6 of May of 1758, determining that all village to be created in the Brazil-Colony, would have that to receive names from existing localities in Portugal. This measure lasted until half of the year of 1803, when it left of being fulfilled.
The population of Saint Antonio of the Big hole, also called Saint Antonio de Quixeramobim, to the high being the village, above had its name changed for Village of Bigger field, due to determination contained in the law. The name of Village of Bigger Field was not upper-class accepted for the population, that continued to make use of the Quixeramobim term, that is, Village of Quixeramobim and, rare, Village of Bigger Field of Quixeramobim.
Passed 67 years of its rise the village, the old population of Saint Antonio is raised the city. This if became possible data the progress that the Village of Bigger Field reached, beyond the bravery and the to fight its children and representatives in the scene politician. The author of the design that raised the village the city was the provinceal member of the house of representatives, Appeals court judge Américo Militão de Freitas Guimarães, nasced in Quixeramobim.
Here it is some aspects of Quixeramobim when raised the city. So that if it has an idea of the dimensions of the urban perimeter, still in the ends of the passed century, the Church of the rosary was outside of the city and, in 1856, the streets did not have to exceed the thus formed quadrilateral delimited: River Quixeramobim, Stream of the Straw, Capadócio Stream and the current Street Dom Quintino. In 1856 it had in the city two schools of first letters: one for boys, under the route of the theacher Jose Antonio Monteiro Imbiriba, and another one for girls, under prompt of the theacher Joana Antônia of the Sacrament. Beyond these two schools, he had a chair of Latin whose theacher was Manuel Antonio Noble Ferreira. The possess city the following streets: of Saint Antonio, the Bonfim, the Elbow, the Ant, the Velame, the Gamboa, the Juazeiro and the Light wind. In the Street of the Elbow he functioned, to Saturdays, a free fair, where if they sold victuals that entered in the city, destined to the public consumption. The market was located in lease building. The Chamber had contracted with the widower owner Inácia Joaquina of the Anunciação the construction of a proper building, for this end. Beyond the Street the Velame it was the corral of butcher’s, constructed for Antonio Pereira Lira Júnior, in the year of 1852. 3 churches existed: the Array of Saint Antonio and the churches of Rosário and Bonfim, being that the two last ones still for finishing. In 1854 the construction of the public cemetary had beginning. In this exactly year was constructed, behind the Church of the Rosary, a cemetary for the victims of cholera.
