Well, yeah. Complete representation is likely impossible. Tiny bones of infants often get absorbed entirely over centuries, erasing the very last trace of their short life. Suicides were buried like dogs, away from Christian cemeteries. Enemy soldiers fallen in battle might have been left to the carrion birds. Executed criminals were buried on the place of execution, gibbetted or dissected. People who died in plagues were buried in plague pits. Jewish people were buried in Jewish cemeteries. A lot of exceptions all around. Still, a "normal" burial ground is by far the most comprehensive record of the local Christian non-noble population that we can hope for.
