An account from 1899 - who was Jane Green??

[Chris Scott]

I really don't know where to start with this one...
The section below is from an article entitled Zangwill's Ghetto published on 18 November 1899.
This section of the article on Whitechapel is about Dorset Street and the Whitechapel murders and claims:
1) The first murder took place in Frying Pan Lane (sic) and the victim was named Jane Green
2) Two victims were found a week later in "McCarthy's Court"
3) The last of the victims (7 in number) was found at the stage door of the Cambridge Music Hall

Make of this what you will...

Hello Chris,

No wonder "you really don't know where to start with this one"....!!!

It seems that you have given us another completely new set of murders to unravel! hahaha

It's a great find, but wow... the implications!

best wishes

I have a copy of Zangwill's "Children of the Ghetto A Study of Peculiar People'" - published in 1893. Not a book I have read yet. Having had a quick 'flick' there is nothing jumping out about JTR. I will do a bit more reading.
