The very top portion of the above image is not to be found. This shows the name of the county and then either the name of the town or township wherein the local registrar is located. The bottom portion of the registration is visible, however, and this certainly makes it appear that the registrar was located in West Lorne. Since Mary Ann died in this community, this makes sense. West Lorne was located in the Township of Aldborough of Elgin County and there was no doubt a registrar for the township as well.

Mary Ann's husband John Lee is buried in Troy Cemetery in Beverly Township. So is one of their daughters. John appears in census enumerations as a member of the United Brethren Church; Mary Ann is generall shown as a Methodist. This does not make it appear that Troy Cemetery was particularly denominational, so it may be that Mary Ann was buried there. Another location for her burial has not been found.

Beyond this, it does make some sense that Mary Ann Mulholland Lee was buried in Troy Cemetery. The first Mulhollands in Beverly were Hugh and his wife Mary Wedge, who appear in this tree. As your researcher has them herein, they do not show Mary Ann as their daughter, but, ages given, she probably was.

An early transcription of Troy Cemetery by Harley Misener has Hugh and his wife Mary buried therein. Since Mary Ann's husband is buried in Troy and almost certainly her parents, it does seem probable that Mary Ann is buried here.
