Still births were registered from 1 July 1927.

Would my best option be to order the historic record book as per the link provided in one of the previous posts?

Just to clarify this was Civil Registration  under the Births and Deaths Registration Act of 1926, apparently there were earlier records.

Current GRO policy on obtaining stillbirth certificates: "Due to the sensitive nature of stillbirth registrations, the procedure for ordering a certificate of the entry differs from other types of certificates. We will only send out the application form after we have been contacted by phone or in writing by the mother or father (if he is named on the certificate). In cases where the parents are deceased, a brother or sister can apply if they can provide their parents' dates of death.

I would have thought that a surviving triplet would easily qualify, whether you would be able to do it on her behalf I'm not sure - but I would say it's worth trying
