Edna's father was stationed in Portsmouth (Royal Navy) and I wonder where she might have been buried.  The family were C of E.

Edna Marcy Rickman died Portsmouth 2018 aged 12

This is a very recent death so are there no relatives who could answer this question?  It's possible she was cremated rather than buried.

Have you looked for any obits which may include funeral details

Does the death certificate indicate where she died or where the parents were resident

[RosemaryJoan]

The family lived in Knox Road, Stamshaw, Portsmouth, and we assume she died there, as we haven’t yet got her death certificate. Thanks for your input.

I have found her baptism in St Stephen’s Church In Portsmouth . Would there be a churchyard there? I know the church was bombed in WW11, according to Google.
I am told the family lived in Knox Road until they moved to Southampton.

As her death was registered March qtr 1918 there is always the (slim) possibility she died very late December 1917.   If you have ordered her death cert it might be as well to wait until it arrives to get her exact date of death.  That would make it easier when ringing the various possible burial places.

I wonder if she was a victim of the Spanish flu epidemic
