hello s
I note that the Whiteheads were living in Birch Road, Attercliffe in 1891, but they are not buried at Christ Church, Attercliffe, or Attercliffe Municipal Cemetery (nor is Louisa Morris).
I think the most likely places are the municipal cemeteries which have not been indexed as part of the NBI project - Burngreave, and City Road. There is also Darnall cemetery (not far away), which has been indexed but I don't have that one.
The registers and indexes for the municipal cemeteries can be consulted at...
