As for Charles Edward's ancestors ...yes I've got the same as you have.

Coming forward from Robert Montague McM 1867-1952 ...I'm just assuming that
since Robt M McM the second since it talks about 'his mother' being the
custodian and I've just found
Robert Montagu McMurdo
Death: 01 JAN 1952
Spouse: Caryanne Randolph Ruffin
Marriage: 03 DEC 1901 Petersburg, , , Virginia

which fits with the others buried in the graveyard.

And I've been invited out for lunch ..must go!
