Solos & Duetts for Cornet a Pistons

Some years ago, I think it was 1993, I bought this intriguing Illuminated Manuscript Book in the second-hand bookstore opposite the Ironbridge in Shropshire. It contains beautifully handwritten “Solos & Duetts for Cornet a Pistons” with the name Thomas Booth - Burton On Trent. You may see scans of the first few pages here and see a PDF
It looks as though it was written in the second half of the 19th Century and contains popular tunes of the day. When I get some time, I intend to make an edition. I would be very grateful if anyone knows of Thomas Booth in Burton On Trent.
