Stillbirths ?

[chich]

Can anyone tell me from what year they would start to have been registed...

[Elaine ..Spain]

I think the Stillbirth Register started in 1927.

i think they started in the 20 century.
and i think only close relations can access them.

[chich]

Thanks both of you...

next question....where and how would i get the information from....

[Mary from Italy]

However, stillbirths are often entered in cemetery burial registers, so if you know where the burial's likely to have taken place, you can try there.

[kylejustin]

isn't there a stillbirth register?

The only people who can get information from the still birth register is the parent's of the child, and if they have both died it is only any siblings.

[Olde Crone Holden]

Stillbirth register can only be accessed by the parents of the stillborn, or, if they are both deceased, then any siblings of that child. (Eldest first, I suspect, but don't know)

You can apply to the GRO for copies of stillbirth certificates but the application can only be made by the mother or father, providing they are named on the certificate. If the parents are deceased than application can be made by a sibling of the stillborn child, providing they can provide details of the parent's death.
