  2. Annie Chapman
     
  3. Elizabeth Stride
     
  4. Catherine Eddowes
     
  5. Mary Jane Kelly
     


There may have possibly been more victims. If possible let's look to see if there are others who may have been victims of Jack the Ripper.

For now, Mary Ann Nichols is considered to be the first victim.

Kerr, this is really cool. Do you have any other information about victims to show us?
Intended this to be a group effort. For the members of the group to contribute to an investigation of our own. I have my sources, however, other members may find different sources to provide a different perspective OR bring to light something over-looked by previous investigations.
