Leonisia Marinho de Macedo - Death Certificate

My father gave me a few documents that he has collected over the years. This is the Death Certificate for my Paternal Grandfather's Mother, Leonisia Marinho de Macedo. My parents went to the registry office to get a transcribed copy of the death certificate.

Interesting Information:

• Leonisia died in childbirth. According to the dates she died on 6 July 1922. Her last child, Amilton Marinho de Macedo, my father's uncle, was born on 3 May 1922. So, Leonisia was ill for about a month before she died.
• The Declarant is my great-grandfather, Leonisia's husband.
• I'm surprised that so many fields were left blank. It would have been great to find her father and mother and where they were born. I will have to look for some sort of marriage record which I hope will have this information on it.
