Conflicts between immigrants who arrived in Brazil with professional qualification was one of the aspects that marked the trajectory of those women who needed to guarantee social insertion, win customers and prestige in society. The midwives' work was broad, going beyond that linked only to childbirth assistance, since they were knowledgeable about the diverse knowledge and practices that came from popular medicine and that taught in universities. One of the main objectives of the work is to indicate the possibilities of using judicial documents to advance studies related to the fields of action of immigrant women in urban realities. Thus, it starts from the analysis of specific situations to apprehend the logics that guided the behaviors, perceptions, expectations, and controls, with the nominative data being taken as conducting threads to map individual and collective paths in other documentary sources. By crossing the information extracted from different documents, it is possible to apprehend in a complex way the activities, articulations, choices, successful or failed, and performances that mark the experiences and the work of immigrant midwives in Brazil. O presente artigo parte da análise de um processo-crime da última década do século XIX, que tem como ré uma imigrante europeia que desempenhava o ofício de parteira na capital do Rio Grande do Sul, Porto Alegre. Conflitos entre imigrantes que chegavam ao Brasil com qualificação profissional era um dos aspectos que marcava a trajetória daquelas mulheres que precisavam garantir uma inserção social, conquistar clientes e prestígio na sociedade. O trabalho das parteiras era amplo, indo além daquele ligado apenas a assistência ao parto, uma vez que eram conhecedoras de saberes e práticas diversas que vinham da medicina popular e da ensinada nas universidades. Um dos objetivos principais do trabalho é indicar para as possibilidades da utilização dos documentos judiciais no avanço dos estudos ligados aos campos de atuação das mulheres imigrantes em realidades urbanas. Desse modo, parte-se da análise de situações específicas para apreender as lógicas que orientavam os comportamentos, as percepções, expectativas e controles, sendo os dados nominativas tomados como fios condutores para mapear percursos individuais e coletivos em outras fontes documentais. Através do cruzamento das informações extraídas de documentos diversos, é possível apreender de maneira complexa as atividades, articulações, escolhas, bem sucedidas ou fracassadas, e desempenhos que marcam as experiências e o trabalho das parteiras imigrantes no Brasil.
