Someone recently posted a link to the transcribed burial PRs of Wyke Regis,
Melcombe Regis and Weymouth (by Mrs Murial Monk). A fantastic resource!

However, I'm a bit confused by the search engine. You can search by
surname, date of death, age at death etc. but the results that come up do
not contain the age at death or the date of burial. For instance, I
searched on NEEDELL and came up with the death of a Thomas NEEDELL in 1895,
and I knew he was 66 because there is a death entry on FreeBMD which gives
his age, but it seems that the only way of checking this on the above site
was to search on 'age at death - 66' and see if he was in the long list
this brought up.

Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong?!
