Hi Bob, Your relatives lived in Leyton/Leytonstone back to the 1841 census. They did though (not unusually) change their forenames. Your Isaac was formerly Benjamin Isaac and married in 1865. In former census' he was a carpenter so its easy to guess what he did in the funeral trade. His father was Frederick and also a carpenter, married to Kezia in 1861 census; in 1851 he was a builder, and in the 1841 census he called himself William. Hope this helps. I have the ntries if you need them.
