Let me know either way. If they can't help, I'll look for you next time I am in GRONI.

Thanks Elwyn for the offer, I phoned and they are going to do a search between 1929 - 1939 so see if anything turns up.

In case you haven't seen it before, a gravestone picture with the headstone recording the deaths of Robert and Helena's sons, can be viewed on post #19 at:

I was in GRONI today and noted that what looks to be the death you are after was registered in Lurgan. Date of death 25.10.1934 Helena Graham b 1863.

Elwyn, thank you so much for taking the time to look up her death for me, my Mum told me that at about 1936 her two eldest sisters went over to Belfast to look for her, they didn't find her which now is clear why. 

I have not heard from GRONI yet but it means I am in the date they will search for.

In case they don't find it (though I am sure they will) the GRONI reference is D/1934/172/1021/52/403.

Death certificate arrived and is the correct one.

Does anyone know which cemetery she may be buried in? She died at Lurgan Infirmary 25 Oct 1934, and she was living at 21 Atkinson Avenue, Portadown, her religion on 1901 census is Methodist, it also looks like it was in 1911.
