Notes edit
- Fidalgo is the currently Madureira EC.
- Porto Alegre is the currently Itaperuna EC.
- Barreira is the currently Boavista SC.
- AA Cabofriense was refounded as AD Cabofriense in 1997 by the same directors with the aim of separating football from the social club activities.
- In 1921 and 1922, respectively, Vila Isabel and Vasco da Gama won the Group B of the LMDT Championship, however, Group B was also officially part of the first level, not being considered these titles of the second division.
