Australian burial certificates NSW

Hi
I am trying to find information on Margaret theresa Watson nee Ryan born in Ireland. Her parents were Catherine nee Piggott and Timothy Ryan of Limerick and Tipperary.

Margaret Ryan married James Watson in Australia in Sandhurst Queensland 9th November 1859 she was aged 21 yrs ( or so the marriage cert says)

I have ordered a record of the death of a Margaret Watson in Armidale in NSW in 1924. as it gave her parents as Timothy and Catherine, so it is a long shot.

I would appreciate any help with going further with this. Also can you advise me of any cemetery records for Armidale in Australia.

I would also appreciate help on finding out when Margaret Theresa Ryan left Ireland given that she was in Australia aged 21 in 1859

Many Thanks

Rainie

I'm not experienced researching Ireland to Austrailia genealogy, but suggest items 2-5 here for a start.

And for leads on Austrailian research, see here: Cyndi's List - Australia.

Irish genealogy is difficult, as so many records are just lost, but here are some sources worth browsing:
Cyndi's List - Ireland & Northern Ireland
