However, there is a big mistake, one which was repeated in the BBC documentary a couple of years ago. That is the location of Aaron Kosminski in 1888.
Now it is a problem, as we have no addresses for him until 1890.
You place him in Sion Square, which is where he was living with his brother Woolf in mid 1890( when he was first taken to the workhouse).
However, in 1888 Woolf was not living in Sion Square, but in Provdence Street , slightly to the south of Berner Street.
In early 89, he moved to Yalford street, to the North Berner.
The rest of the Kosminski family were living mostly in Greenfield Street, next to Yalford.
Yalford and Greenfield place the possible location for AK, and a bolt hole. much closer to your southern area. However Providence, is right in the heart of it
