it looks like Emma Mosgrove is buried in Failsworth Cemetery in Section A Grave Q9
Emma Mosgrove aged 79 buried 7/05/1923 (22 Hardman Lane Failsworth)
In the same grave are
William Morris aged 35 buried 24/01/1901
Joseph Morris aged 2 months buried 12/05/1904 (200 Oldham Road, Failsworth)
Florrie Morris aged 5 months buried 20/08/1904 (200 Oldham Road Failsworth)

Hi Terry,

Unfortunately there is no gravestone for Section A, Grave Q9

First photograph is Failsworth Cemetery, Section A, Grave Q10 (Edith Simpson and Ada Clarke)

[RonOne]

Grave Q9 (no gravestone) is directly to the right of Q10 in this photograph - Q10 (Edith Simpson and Ada Clarke) is the gravestone on the centre left. There is also no gravestone on Q8.

Hi Terry,

Failsworth Cemetery, Section L, Grave Q4
Mary Emma Hardman, aged 58 years, burial date 30/09/1925, (26 Richmond St, Newton Heath)
Emma Hardman, aged 40 years, burial date 15/01/1930, (123 Crescent Rd, Crumpsall), Buried from Failsworth parish
Annie Strafford, aged 57 years, burial date 10/04/1935, (26 Richmond St, Newton Heath)
John Hardman, aged 77 years, burial date 17/02/1943,(123 Crescent Rd, Crumpsall)

Note 1: The address for Mary Emma Hardman has been transcribed as 20 Richmond st, on the Oldham Council burial website. It's definitely 26 Richmond st, written in the original burial register.

Note 2: 123 Crescent Rd, Crumpsall was the address of Crumpsall Hospital (now North Manchester General Hospital)

I think Emma is Fred Hardman's first wife Emma Mosgrove (your grandmother)
John Hardman and Mary Emma Hardman I think are Fred Hardman's parents (your great-grandparents)
I was hoping the gravestone would confirm the relationships but unfortunately there isn't one.

I am now looking for relatives of Ernest and Sarah Mosgrove(nee Nixon). Ernest died 29/10/1941 and Sarah died 02/10/1958 aged 78 and lived at 44 Mather Street Failsworth.

Also information on Ethel Critchley(nee Mosgrove) who died on 10/09/1958 and married to James. They lived at 112 Oldham Road, Failsworth.

Ernest and Sarah Mosgrove had a son James. He was a marine in the Royal Navy and was killed in Normandy on 17th August 1944. Does anyone have any information about James Mosgrove?
