Two sisters, Kate Salaman and Julia Goodman, were painters -- the former of miniatures and the latter, a prolific portraitist. Her brother, Charles Kensington Salaman, was a British composer and pianist. Her husband, Judah Julius Collins, was a warden of the Western Marble Arch Synagogue in London's West End, and purported to be a descendant of the Baal Shem of London. Their son, Edwin Collins, was a Jewish educator. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rose_Emma_Salamanאֲדוֹן עוֹלָם (מנהג הספרדים) | Adōn Olam, rhyming translation by Rosa Emma Salaman (1855)
