“I think it would be unusual and confusing to put her name on husband #1’s matzeiva if she isn’t buried there.”
I pondered this and discussed this with the shul Rav
His take was that because she was the widow of Husband #1 (Mrs. CTL and her siblings father) it would honor their marriage. If she had been divorced from Husband #1, Rav for forbid it.

There are 3 other stones in the shul cemetery (that I know of) where there is no one buried adjacent to match the description. The stone is a memorial marker in that case.
