The NYC death indexes list stillbirths separately from the standard deaths, but they *are* in the indexes and the IGG online database has them -- at least some of them. Try entering "female," "male" or "infant" as a given name along with the surname. I found a lot of listings using Steve Morse's front end. <http://www.stevemorse.org/vital/nydeath.html> >I had been told that to bury in NYC, you must have a death certificate.
