Hi everyone....I am trying to find my grandmother's grave in dublin but all the sites I try have no results. I have found her death certificate online and know where and when she died. She died in 1930 at 23 in a hospice in Harold's Cross but can find no record for her in any of the graveyard records online.

Welcome to RootsChat :)
If you gave us her name, maybe one of the Dublin experts would be able to find out more details?

Sorry....just realised I hadn't put her name in.......she was Caroline Mooney.Thank you

Welcome to Rootschat :)
There are two different types of burial records online- those that record only headstone inscriptions and those that record actual burials. If she had no headstone it's possible that it will be very difficult to find a place of burial.
Perhaps she was buried in a family plot- do you know where her husband was buried?
Have you tried searching newspapers to see if place of burial is mentioned?

Her husband was in the army and stationed in egypt at the time of his death and was buried there but thank you for your help. Will check newspapers for information :)

Hi everyone :) with regards to trying to find my grandmother's burial place....I have checked newspapers but no luck :-\ all I know is she was buried in dublin. I understand that in 1930 her family possibly couldn't afford a big burial and a notice in a newspaper. I am at a loss what to try next.
