Portuguese term or phrase: Oficiais Maiores
Num certificado de casamento de um cartório distrital no Brasil (District civil registry office, I think, although it looks funny). Há o termo "Oficial" e "Oficiais maiores."

Pensei que fossem “Clerk” e “Senior Clerks”, mas estou confusa, pois o nome do “Oficial” vem primeiro, escrito em letras maiores e os nomes dos oficiais maiores vêm em letras pequenas depois do oficial. Alguem sabe os termos precisos? Desde já muito agradecida!
