A "Mary Blake" is recorded in the records of the Oaklawn cemetery as being interred in Lot 5, Grover Bishop. I believe an error made in recording the interment; and that it was actually Julia who was interred. The date for Mary's interment in the cemetery records agrees with the date for Julia's interment in her obituary.
