    It is possible that the discrepancy in date of death between the VR and the Reinlaender Gemeinde Buch is due to a transcription error in either source, or it could be that the date in the Reinlaender Gemeinde Buch is the burial date (the Sommerfeld Gemeinde Buch is known to record the burial date in at least some cases).
