Yes, the omission of numbers was not a good sign. I've been trying to work out the best online resources for searching "the Memorials of the Dead" and found memsdead.com, but need to spend more tikme on that. If not, Thurles Library could be a good contact.
In the preamble to the list of names, it mentions numbers which indicate the position of the graves. The Cooke entries do not have numbers.
There is also this,
“ Where possible, these inscriptions have been checked against ‘The Journal for the Preservation of the Memorials of the Dead,’ which are to be found in the Local Studies Dept. of Thurles Library.”
Perhaps contacting that department may be useful.
