Twin sister who died at birth
« on: Saturday 06 October 18 07:32 BST (UK) »
I have been trying to do some research on my twin sister who died at birth.  Unfortunately in 1953, our birth year there were no records kept of stillborns.  I ordered a CD from Anguline Research Archives (Guy Etchells who apparently posts on here), unfortunately I have been unable to get the disc to work on any format.  I have emailed Guy several times but have had no reply.  Does anyone on here know either how I can get in touch with him as the website is still up and running or have any idea how I could do my research.  I contacted Peterborough registry office but they have no record.

My mother had a twin sister who died in 1931 - so records certainly are available. ;D
I applied for, and received the Stillbirth Certificate

What you have to do is:
  • Phone the GRO at Southport. They will want to know your relationship to the stillborn child.
  • They will send you a form, by regular post.
  • Send the completed form back to the address supplied, together with payment.
  • The Stillbirth Certificate will be sent to you.

These records are NOT available online.

Telephone number is 0300 123 1837.
Office open 8an to 8pm, Monday to Friday, and 9am to 4pm Saturday.

Please note: There will be no forename on this certificate.

Have sent Guy a message!!
Give a man a record and you feed him for a day.
Teach a man to research, and you feed him for a lifetime.

Thank you both @KGarrad and @Hallmark for your prompt replies.

I will follow up with your suggestions KGarrad and it would be good if Guy can get in touch Hallmark

Thanks for mentioning this Walki.  I ordered a CD from Guy on 7th September and have yet to receive it.  How long did it take for your CD to arrive?

If anyone has any problems with Anguline Research Archives products or non delivery of CDs the can contact me by sending a PM.
I cannot respond to queries on forums as people use different names on forums to what they would use when purchasing products.

Cheers

Hi Guy,

I have emailed you.  I have tried several times to email you in the past but have never received a reply hence my post on here.

Thanks
