Joe Gargery is the name of Pips sister in the novel Great Expectations. Pips sister is referred to as 'Miss Joe' this is because during the Victorian period women were the lesser sex and their identity comes from their husband. However 'Miss Joe' is a very strong character and I feel Joe is more scared of her then anything and it seems she rules the roost.
