Coincidentally, the surname 'Jacobs' appears somewhere else.
When Eddowes was discharged from the police station, she gave her address as 6 Fashion Street.
I've always wondered why.
Well in 1891 there were 2 families living at 6 Fashion Street..one of which was the 'Silverman' family and the other was the 'JACOBS' family.
Joseph Jacobs was a Jewish Tailor (aged 42 in 1891)
It would be within reason to suggest the Jacobs family may have lived there in 1888 also.
