Thank you for looking, it's a mystery.
The census says the father was from Yorkshire and the mother from Ashton under Lyne so they may be further a field.

I now think this burial will be at Greenacres  Congregational Chapel, which is next to Greenacres Cemetery,  mother Robinson wouldnt want to be too far away from her family. Their registers are in printed book form in the Local Interest Centre and not online so explains why nothing is showing up for them

Ok -- you could try non-conformist records on family search. You never know that chapel may just be included.

I did check the ones on Ancestry but couldn't find them. There are a whole load of churches and chapels for Oldham on Lancs on line Parish Clerk site --I haven't searched for them on there actually.
