I think you should ask a Mod to move this to the Tyrone board,.
There may be local people able to help.

also try Googling "tyrone gravestones"

You can view that death certificate on GRONI's website after registering and purchasing a few credits. However, the place of burial will not be recorded and with the other details on the certificate you may not be sure if it's the correct certificate (unless, perhaps, the informant's name is a relative you can identify).
See here for details on death certificate-

A death notice might have been placed in the local paper the time she died. However, it may be that her name doesn't appear on a headstone which might make it more difficult to find where she is buried.
