Subject: [CASANFRA] Obtaining Death Records for Stillborn or Fetal Deaths
Date: Wed, 18 Oct 2000 03:37:51 EDT


There have been questions on the lists concerning how to obtain death records
for a Stillborn or Fetal Death (the term the state uses).
A record of this type of death may be obtained by the Parent of the stillborn
or if other than parent is requesting a Court Order is required.
The address to send the request to if you are a parent is:
State Dept. of Health Services
Office of Vital Records
PO Box 730241
Sacramento, CA 94244-0241
However I was also informed that it is better to telephone rather than
write. The telephone number is (916) 445-2684.
Hope this answers all questions and helps someone!
