Tom

It is not unusual to find errors in cemetery records, especially in the work
that Joe Meiser has published, where he not only listed the interred but
also attempted to match spouses and parents using other informational
sources. He readily states in the preface to his works that he cannot
guarantee the complete accuracy of the data. As documents I find his work
invaluable, but as Mr. Meiser states "not 100 percent accurate." That is
why they have to be checked against other records like census listings just
as you have done.
