Robert Brinkley

Would some kind person be able to look up a burial for me please? Brian Lawson's Microsite has the following:

BRINKLEY, Robert 81 Ballaugh 12 Mar 1985

But that seems to conflict with this:

"Memorial of the last Will and Testament of ROBERT BRINKLEY, late of Grest Home in the Parish of Lezayre and formerly of Croit-ne-Gurrin in the Parish of Ballaugh Farm Worker (retired) deceased ..... died on the 6th day of August 1985"

One of these dates must be wrong as he definitely wouldn't have been buried 5 months before he died!
