Where is Peter Wallover buried?

At Saint Paul's Cemetery, located adjacent to the St. Paul's Evangelical Lutheran Church, 415 E. Athens Avenue, Ardmore, PA.


The Saint Paul's Evangelical Lutheran Church website is located here: http://www.stpaulsardmore.org/cemetery.html

We visited this cemetery in June, and even though we didn't get to see actual records or talk to anyone while there, I noticed a couple of discrepancies.

1) First, Peter W. Wallover's grave is located next to the others in Plot 64.
2) His death date reads December 25, 1871.
3) So, who is the other person whose death date is January 26, 1905? I'm looking into that.



Here are the other graves:







This headstone was broken in two pieces. :( 
I think it says:

In Memory Of
Lizzei H.
Daughter
? Shafer



Linie C. Leader

Anyone else wonder why the misspellings?
