Headstone for Ripper hunt officer ~ how nice, but where is the family ???

Locals raised the money for Det. Insp. Frederick Abberline's headstone.  Since burial, 78 years ago, his grave has been unnmarked.

The article says that they are about finding living rellies!

1871 St Pancras (Kentish Town) London
RG 10/246 folio 78 page 24
Address: Police Station
Numerous police officers listed including

1891 Lambeth (Kennington Second) London
RG 12/406 folio 36 page 36
Address: 39 Mayflower Road
Frederick G Abberline, head, 48, chief inspector metropolitan police, Blandford Dorset
Emma, wife, 41, NK Middlesex

1901 Lambeth (Kennington Second) London
RG 13/423 folio 137 page 41
Address: 313 Clapham Road
Fredk Geo Abberline, head, 58m chief inspector of police, Blandford Dorset
Emma, wife, 51, Hoxton London
Plus two boarders and one servant.

So...

Frederick doesn't appear to have had any children (which kind of explains things).

If we're looking for surviving members of his family, what about descendants of his brother Edward?
