Did you make sure to make the coffins available for burial?

you first need to make the coffins, then build them, and then mark them as use for burial. Then a burial job should be generated for each dead dwarf as long as there are enough coffins. Eventually an idle dwarf will get around to do the burials.

There is no population requirement for goblins to arrive.

Did you claim the bodies? Everything is automatically forbidden on reclaim.

Forbidden corpses is the first problem I suspect, too.
