Ann VERNON m Edward HEATHCOTT 1829 Chapel-en-le-Frith Derbyshire

Trying to work out the ancestry of the bride in the above marriage.

Census returns show the bride born Peak Forest Derbyshire, abt 1808. Her headstone apparently (not had a chance to check it myself) has her born July 2nd, 1808. However, the most likely candidate was christened at Peak Forest the week before(!). If this candidate (d/o Joseph and Ann), the domestic servants with the couple in 1851, 1861 and 1871 would all be her nieces.

Is the headstone mis-transcribed or just plain wrong? Or is the bride Mary Ann (d/o Enoch and Mary), christened later that year?
