NOTE: A contact with Angela Ruley, compllier of this cemetery, confirmed my suspicion that something was not quite right. (It hardly made sense that Polly would continue having children after she died!)
Angela noted to me that the following errors had been made and that she would correct the online compilation but, unfortunately, she never did so.
The corrections are in italics.
Benjamin Franklin Black died 8 Nov 1830, age 12 months, 8 days, son of Henry and Polly (correct)
Robert Black died 26 Oct 1843, age 8 months 6 day, son of Henry and Polly (son of Henry)
Sarah Agnes died 8 Feb 1845 age 2 months 6 days, daughter of Henry and Polly (daughter of Henry)
Caroline Virginia Black died 27 July 1851, aged 5 months 26 days, daughter of Henry and Polly (no parents listed)
It should be further noted that the last three children (Robert, Sarah & Caroline) are the children of Henry Black and his second wife, Martha (Patsy) Black, daughter of Benjamin Black & Jean/Jane Clark, and Henry's first cousin.
