Agreed.
I think the brother in law is Simon Freedman.
Now presumably he'd have to marry a Levy.
Now searching here I can see a Simon Freedman who married a Rachel Levy in Manchester in 1903

- I think the family are all together in 1930 - Lesser and Etta, his brother "Sam" and his sister in law "Ray". Sam and Ray emigrated in 1905.

- her death, giving father as Abraham mother "Bluma"

This is useful because it gives an address for "Abram Levy" (father? brother? - not stated), 35 Lord St, Cheetham, Manchester.
Also, the Bluma leads me to this:
