Emily Peters married Henry Gregory 1876.
So she was Catherine Peters sister.

Isabella Barnett married Joseph Simmonds 1888.
She had brother Abraham.
Parents Joshua Barnett 1816 - 1873 married Nancy (Mary) Benjamin 1844- 1898?

I think parents of Joshua were lazarus 1790 and Ann 1796.

From Death Cert:

However, I can find no info about Abraham's parents or spouse!!!! The only other thing I think I know is that he was probably Jewish (JT Barnett was according to the family disowned for marrying outside of the faith.

HELP.
You could also look at my earlier thread about Sexton/Rumble family and specifically about the mysterious Daisy Rumble!!
