It looks like many (possibly all) of the index-to-image associations are messed up in that collection: I searched the film for one of the names that's actually on the image, Lewis Rogers, and he's in the index twice, identically except for the URL (https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:W176-6ZMM and https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:W1WQ-SSW2) -- but both of those index entries are incorrectly linked to image 165 instead of 161.
@Áine Ní Donnghaile, unfortunately, index correction doesn't really apply here -- I'm sure most of Mr. Gardner's entry is correct. It's just not on the linked image, and most likely not on that film: I checked the in-document indexes for all four items on it, and none of them list a Samuel Gardner. There's a typo in the metadata somewhere -- film number, image number, date, or some combination.

@JanetAppleby1 We confirmed that the index and the images are not stitched properly. This has been sent for correction, but we have no idea how long it will take.
You might be interested in the wiki article about the record collection: https://www.familysearch.org/en/wiki/South_Carolina,_Charleston_District,_Estate_inventories_-_FamilySearch_Historical_Records. Towards the bottom of the article is a section “Related Family History Holdings” with links to other collections that might have some useful information.
