Why would they necessarily link with yours?

i have been sent their headstone from the graveyard where they are buried.

another family member is researching the hendersons and found themselves at this headstone but they cant place them in the family at present

this is why i trying to look into it. are they our family or another hendersons?

that is the big question, where they given false info that led them to this?
