I have an Elizabeth lyttle who died 2nd dec 1929 in Belfast.

How firm is the date of death? There's an 84 year old Elizabeth Lyttle died on 18th November 1929 and is buried in grave D1 327 of Belfast City Cemetery, the other grave occupant details may give a clue (available via this link):

hi gaffy,
had a look at all these,but my Elizabeth was born 9/april/1878 and with the date of death I have the age was right, but I was hopping that we could find a death notice to confirm were she is buried and also confirm that the family is the correct one , this is why I think the dec death date seems right

I am not sure if it will help but you can view the death certificate for Elizabeth Lyttle on:

https://geni.nidirect.gov.uk/

It shows her as aged 50 and having died on 2 December 1929.  To view the full record costs £2.  The death record should give her address which may help you.  It will also give you the name of the person reporting the death.  Usually but not always this will be a close relative.

It will not be crucial, but I think that you should check the number.  I don't think Charles Street South was big enough to have 2072 as a number.
