Hiya Danny,

I've a hunch you may have received a reply on another site but the answer may assist people reading this thread. You've asked a good question. An online site covering all the graves in Cemeteries throughout Northern Ireland or even all Ireland would be brilliant.

There are a number of sites where you can find graves on the net but I'm not sure whether they contain information relating to recent times. Try Find a Grave and the Cemetery Transcription Library Interment.net If you add ireland/index.htm after interment.net it shows the only Northern Ireland cemeteries on their records are in Co. Derry.

A few of the other members may know of a site for Belfast and Co. Antrim

Danny, sorry, that pdf file is a history book and not a listing of the names as is done for Clifton st.  Search the forum on the same site and go for the relevant message boards yourself is my suggestion now, Good luck, Jim

If you go onto the Ulster Historical Foundation website ie www.ancestryireland.com/index.php   you will see along the top information bars, a link to their sister site Tombstones from Ulster ie www.historyfromheadstones.com/ if you enter the lower box with Milltown as the graveyard name you will find entries.  You then need to be a member or pay fees to look them up and there is no way of knowing how recent the coverage is, but nevertheless its getting information as follows
Milltown Shankill Belfast WILSON, DONNELLY, MELLON, CARR, BEATTIE   
Milltown Shankill Belfast WILSON
Hoping thats useful to one and all
