The Births and Deaths Registration Act of 1926 made stillbirths registerable from 1st July 1927, the only regulation prior that date was within the 1874 requirement for a declaration of stillbirth to be obtained.
There is no index of names of stillbirths (since 1st July 1927) available for researchers, and no copy of the certificate issued on registration of the stillbirth is allowed to be made apart from exceptional circumstances, e.g., medical/genetic. In such cases a copy is available at the discretion of the Registrar General.
