Hi Lynn,
Thanks for your comment. Somewhere else on casebook.org, I read that a 16-year-old Irish girl Alice Carroll gave evidence for the prosecution at the Phoenix Park murders (1883), then disappeared without much trace.
Some theorists believe she wound up in Whitechapel and might even have been the real Mary Jane Kelly. Any theories on this yourself???
Hi Siobhan
With due respect, that line of thinking is in the realm of fantasy. Not as bad as saying Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec or Vincent Van Gogh was the Ripper but along the same yellow brick road.
All the best

My esoteric filing system appears to have defeated me, so could you please post a link to your 1882 Anderson in Dublin/house robbery/Inspector Andrews investigates post?
Many thanks.
Regards,
Simon
Never believe anything until it has been officially denied.
Please forgive my scorn, but that "dispatch boxes had been broken open and their contents scattered about", and "about three dozen bottles of wine had gone" plus "several pairs of Mrs Anderson's underwear had been taken" beggars belief.
Do you not think that Anderson, the keeper of every secret worth keeping, would not have had a ninety-seven-lock combination safe as big and as impenetrable as the Ritz?
Of course, this is not to suggest that he kept his wife's knickers in a safe.

Hi folks,
Anyone know what was Tumblety's sister's first name? the one he visited/ stayed with in Liverpool.
If married, what was her new Surname.
Did he have any other relatives by the name of Tumblety in the city?
If the answers to the above questions are obvious, apologies in advance...
I've found a Tumblety in England who wants to help track the family.
Still no joy on finding new info on the family in Ireland.

Hi Siobhan,
I have a few things, but limited time just now. Here’s the first. In Hall Caine: Portrait of a Victorian Romancer by Vivien Allen on page she writes on page 39,
Tumblety’s sister, Bridget, was married to a man named Brady and lived in Widnes, not far from Liverpool. Brady wrote to tell Caine he had not heard from ‘the Doctor’ for 15 days... Tumblety surfaced again on 14 May (1875).
Thanks Mike. You're like an encyclopedia! I'm reading America's First Serial Killer at the mo.... and if there's anything in it relating to Scotland Yard suspicions re Tumblety (that you may have overlooked), I'll post on your other thread.
Scott,
I think I'll change spelling of my name to "Shabon". Has a nice ring to it.
Cheers.
