Are you sure she was buried & not cremated?  Do you know if there is a family grave?

As you now have the actual date of death - you could ring the Cemetary office to get further details

She left a will - address shown is 15/17 Oxford Rd Southport

If she was cremated - there may not be an actual grave but there may be a memorial headstone or an "ashes only" plot
