Charles Yard

[Phil Carter]

Hello all,

Can anyone please be so kind as to identify the victim of Charles Yard?
Or is this a "wrong number" for Rose Mylett's murder?

Reason?

On the 29th Dec the East London Advertiser says..

that the body of a strangled woman, a known prostitute, was found in the early hours of the morning by a patrolling police Sergeant in Charles Yard, a grim rookery off the Poplar High Street.

ref. East End 1888, page 281. William Fishman.

best wishes
