Hi

Family Search don't usually have record images for the 1920s probably to avoid any problems over living people.

I've moved this into the Liverpool section as you may have posted on the Familysearch board in error.

That address if my memory serves me is in Walton, so I would suggest a check of both Anfield and West Derby Cemeteries, however I would have thought that there would be a death entry for her in the local newspaper which might give a clue about where the funeral was being held.

thank you Blue and Mary I will follow your advice and will let you know what I find ,up to now I cant find a notice in the papers
