You have been given the details of the burial including location.  There is no headstone according the the transcriptions of headstones at Rookwood Cemetery.

how do they know who is buried theer
Roz
All cemeteries maintain a burial register.  This is required by law.

You can search here for her burial, however you must search just using AMY as a given name and no surname, and scroll down to Amy buried [according to the index] 6 Oct 1954.

Click on map....and wait and wait ;)  Eventually the details will appear on the right of the page that Amy was 84 years of age.

Perhaps Amy needed her birth certificate in 1931 to apply for the aged pension.

Cheers

I have looked up the Rookwood site and put in just Amy and all that came up with the closet date was ...
ARENSIELL  AMY  06 Oct 1954
So I looked again with her full name Amy Ironside and nothing, now I am really lost :-(
So does this mean that Amy Arensiell could be my Amy????

Roz the information about Amy ARENSIELL was posted by Cass and I agree with her.  May I suggest that you go back and read all the information on the thread very carefully. 

Of course you can contact the cemetery as I suggested on one of my posts....link to website with contact details also posted previously.

Good luck.

Cheers
