Hi Looking to find the grave of Bridget Johnston widow of Robert Johnston,  Ms  Byrne  died 24 September 1924 in Kelvin Glasgow born around 1839 in Ireland, then moved to Carlisle then upto Glasgow , also her husband who was  last found in the 1881 census for England living with the family in Carlisle he was born around 1835 also in Ireland  any help would be appreciated

One would think she would be buried with her husband. 
I assume you know her address from her death registration.  Put it into Google maps and he search cemeteries.  I would think Sighthill would be a stating point.  She may not have a stone and it is possible she was cremated.

Thanks Don I will try that she died at 24 Myrtle street Glasgow district of Kelvin

Unfortunately her religion would also have played a part - if she was RC then you have St. Kentigerns in the north of the City and St Peters in the east end (St Kentigerns is the closer to Kelvin District)

 Hi Falkyrn thanks for your input, unfortunately I do not know her religion I assume she was protestant but not certain , I have not been able to locate her husband after 1881 census when the family were still all together in Carlisle.By  1891 census he is missing and they are living in 7 Scotia street Glasgow  by 1901 she was living with one of her daughters and son in law  in Dundee but then her death record gives 24 myrtle street in 1924  and the witness who is another daughter lives there until her death in 1942   I have been unable to find marriage cert  or birth record

The Western Necopolis/ Lambhill Cemetery is adjacent to St Kentigerns and is one of the cemetery complexes relatively close to Myrtle Street (Sighthill is slightly closer by road). That said the family may have had other preferences and used another cemetery which had an association with the family.

With a name like Bridget Byrne you have to consider the possibility that she was Roman Catholic.
