Death Certificate - Lindalva Ferreira (da Silva) Lima

In trying to clear up the mystery of my Grandmother's age at marriage, I am going through what I know and deciding what my next course of action should be.

I have scanned and now transcribed/translated a notarized copy of her death certificate I received from my parents. This doesn't list her birth date but does give her age as 64 years old. Since she died on 6 Jun 1999 that would mean she was born between 7 Jun 1937 and 6 Jun 1938. I have her birth date as 7 Oct 1934 which doesn't fall in that range! With that birth date range it would mean she got married at 12-13 years old...not likely!

How old are you grandma?

I don't know who the informant is - Jose Feodosio da Silva ... he is not in the database I received from my father, so I'm not sure how accurate the information is as pertains to her age.
