  General Notes:

There is a conflict with the dates of two children, Samuel and Sarah. Since Samuel is buried in the Bucher cemetery and his tombstone date has been read and recorded numerous times, and, Sarah's date of birth is not so verified, it is likely her date is the one that needs correction.
