According to her Death notice earlier in the Larne Times plus one in Belfast Telegraph 30 June 1953 BENSON—June 29, 1953 (suddenly), at her residence, 2 New Estate, Woodlawn, Carrickfergus, Rose, dearly-loved wife of William Pollock Benson and loved daughter of Mary and the late Hugh Manson. Funeral from her mother's residence, 4 Portland Road, Larne, to-morrow (Wednesday) to Larne Cemetery.
So would have thought was interred Greenland Cemetery, if not must be McGarel Cemetery, Larne also under the care of https://www.midandeastantrim.gov.uk/resident/bdmcp/cemeteries/cemeteries if they cannot locate is likely due to a clerical or spelling error. Check under both Benson & Manson.
