He became a secretary in London and subsequently served as a plenipotentiary in Europe and South America. His family connections included a sister who was Baroness of Penedo, and he received the title Baron of Aguiar de Andrada in 1876.","After the Paraguayan War, Aguiar de Andrada directed negotiations in the River Plate region as plenipotentiary. Luiz Augusto de Pádua Fleury managed the Buenos Aires legation in 1875–1876 under him. Historian Gabriel Passetti distinguishes Fleury’s administrative duties from Andrada’s negotiating authority.","His final assignment was the special mission in Washington dealing with the disputed Brazil–Argentina frontier known as the Palmas or Missions question. He died before that arbitration was concluded. Although an often repeated biographical reference places his death in 1892, Salvador de Mendonça's contemporary notification to Secretary of State Walter Gresham states that he died suddenly in Washington on the evening of 25 March 1893."],"id":"brazil:francisco xavier da costa aguiar de andrada","identifiers":{},"legacyPersonIds":[],"legacyUrl":"https://chanceries.org/diplomat-f8acb9cc675ad8ec2bed.html","name":"Francisco Xavier da Costa Aguiar de Andrada","notes":[],"paragraphSources":[["nobility"],["passetti"],["nobility","death"]],"profileUrl":"diplomat-f8acb9cc675ad8ec2bed.html","relatedEvents":[],"relatedPeople":[{"certainty":"documented","name":"Luiz Augusto de Pádua Fleury","note":"Supervised Fleury’s Buenos Aires work.","profileUrl":"diplomat-26d4945432bda30ee36a.html","sourceIds":["passetti"],"targetId":"brazil:luiz augusto de padua fleury","type":"supervised"}],"relationships":[{"certainty":"documented","note":"Supervised Fleury’s Buenos Aires work.","sourceIds":["passetti"],"targetId":"brazil:luiz augusto de padua fleury","type":"supervised"}],"researchStatus":"reviewed","reviewedOn":"2026-10-28","revision":"202b6a319d84fabd","sources":[{"accessedOn":"2026-10-28","date":"1918","id":"nobility","locator":"Named biographical entry in the 1918 work","publisher":"Wikisource transcription of 1918 reference work","title":"Archivo nobiliarchico brasileiro: Aguiar de Andrada","type":"reference","url":"https://pt.wikisource.org/wiki/Archivo_nobiliarchico_brasileiro/Aguiar_de_Andrada_%28Bar%C3%A3o_de%29"},{"accessedOn":"2026-10-28","date":"2020","id":"passetti","locator":"24(3), pp. 88–108","publisher":"Diálogos / Universidade Estadual de Maringá","title":"Gabriel Passetti, Estando autorizado pelo Sr. Conselheiro Barão de Andrada","type":"scholarship","url":"https://www.researchgate.net/publication/347808504_Estando_autorizado_pelo_Sr_Conselheiro_Barao_de_Andrada_percursos_e_limitacoes_da_trajetoria_do_diplomata_Luiz_Augusto_de_Padua_Fleury_em_Buenos_Aires_18761"},{"accessedOn":"2026-10-28","date":"1893-03-25","id":"death","locator":"frus1893; document d168","publisher":"U.S. Department of State","title":"Mendonça to Gresham, 25 March 1893","type":"primary-record","url":"https://history.state.gov/historicaldocuments/frus1893/d168"},{"accessedOn":"","date":"Accessed 26 October 2026","id":"mission-759fca5789687b8b2893","locator":"","publisher":"","title":"Historical representation: Empire of Brazil","type":"Mission record","url":"https://funag.gov.br/loja/download/legacoes_embaixadas.pdf"},{"accessedOn":"","date":"Accessed 26 October 2026","id":"mission-fc4375c1c92978eed672","locator":"","publisher":"","title":"Historical representation: Empire of Brazil","type":"Mission record","url":"https://www.camara.leg.br/noticias/91674-saiba-quais-sao-as-12-bandeiras-historicas-do-brasil/"}],"topics":["Palmas arbitration","Paraguayan War settlement"]},"schemaVersion":1}
