I would contact the local council that covers this area. They should have a record of all this information. My local council does this I send  an email and they send you the burial plot reference. The other thing if you are close to a local library or archive is look in the copies of newspapers for this area to see if their death and funeral information is listed. Remember obituaries appear a couple of weeks after the death so search over a wider time period. Hope it helps
