Corpse Bride/WMG

Emily and Victoria are sisters.
Think about it. According to Emily's story, her family was very wealthy until Barkis killed her and took all of the money. Meanwhile, the Everglots are revealed to be going through a recession after losing all of their money. Don't you think there's a connection between these two subplots?
 * Perhaps, if not sisters, given Emily seemed to have been dead for some time, but at least cousins with Emily being born to the Everglots' older sibling.
