Hi folks was hoping someone would be able to help me as have been trying to find this person for some time now. The person i am looking for is my mums older brother who died as a baby, the only details we have are that he was born on 1st Dec 1939 and his parents names were Cecil and Evelyn Mitchell who lived in essex we dont know his name, but do know that he died within a few months of his birth. Any help in finding out his name or where he was born or is buried would be very much appreciated by both me and my mum as we cant at the present time come to essex to try researching ourselves. Thank you

Helping you would be easier if you told us Evelyn's maiden name.........................

Google stillbirth register

You can't apply...your mother would have to.

But the site has all the info you need...................
