Pippin:
Voldemort only reveals to his followers that his father is buried in this cemetery. He doesn't mention that he was a Muggle. You seem to be assuming the DE's would deduce that since Little Hangleton is a Muggle village. But do they even know that's where they are? They apparated to where the Dark Mark called them, not to coordinates on a map. In any case the Gaunt family lived in Little Hangleton for generations, so why wouldn't wizards be buried in its cemetery too?
