looking for burial records

I have ancestors who lived at 46 Baker Street Handsworth late 1950s and early 1960s. It was a Winifred Maud Boardman, with husband Thomas and mother Mary Ann Hill. In the Electoral Registers 1957, they all appear. 1960 Registers, Thomas and Winifred are still there but Mary Ann Hill has gone presumed deceased. The 1962 Register has just Winifred. However I can't find anything on Birmingham Burials about either of them. Thomas is in FreeBMD died in 1961 but that's it. Any information would be brilliant.

There's a death reg. for a Mary A Hill Mar qtr 1959 Bham.

There is a burial on the Bham bereavement site for a Mary Hill at Lodge Hill Feb 1959. No other details and they don't list middle name/initial in the search results so no idea if it's her.

There is no other death reg. in that qtr for a Mary Hill in Bham though.

She doesn't appear to have had any, she married in 1941 in Bham. I think she was born in Handsworth.

In 1939 she is at the Stoke Lyne Home for Mentally Deficient Boys in Devon. I assume working.

Thanks for that but I bought a Death Certificate for that lady and she lived in Northfield.

It looks as if Winfred was married before. Thomas Boardman being her second husband so did she have any children who might have lived in Leeds?

No children at all, it might have made the search easier. The first husband was

No children there either. The lady buried in Lodge Hill lived in Northfield at time of death. I actually bought her death certificate thinking it was the correct one. Winifred was a nurse born in Wales along with most of her siblings.
