Having ancestors in the Coggeshall area, I discovered that some of the Coggeshall parish records are freely available online on the Coggeshall Museum website. (A wonderful resource for anyone else whose family was in Coggeshall!) There are many records of burials of stillborn children there, for example there were 97 in the period 1879-1916, which is roughly when we're talking about.  http://www.coggeshallmuseum.org.uk/Coggeshall%20Burial%20Register%201879%20-%201916.pdf One entry is for "Two stillborn children", who were buried together in one grave. As you said, it's so sad. I know this is not the parish that was asked about, but it does indicate that the information is sometimes available. Regards, Jan
