What Was It Like To Live In Mary Kelly's Room After Her Murder?

[@bessofhardwick9311]

Very interesting. I've never heard any of this information before. The idea that subsequent tenants not only lived there with the gore from the murder still around them, but even capitalised on it just goes to show how dark life must have been for people on the edge of society in those days.

Children at very young age were doing countless hours in awful surroundings. No health & safety why so many died at work. And diseases were no escape for anybody. I for one am glad I wasn't around then.

My late father as a boy in the 1930’s, used to travel on the train from Birmingham to London to visit his grandmother who lived in the Whitechapel area and he would often say how it looked exactly the same as it did in the 1880’s. He said it would give him the creeps with the stone cobbled streets and dimly lit alleyways, and he could imagine Jack The Ripper still getting around.

Poor Mary Kelly. I know some people think she was "just a prostitute " no loss no important. Please remember those women were human beings. They were somebody's daughter, somebody's sister. Sometimes they were some one's wife or mother too. No one should die like that! It shouldn't be a form of amusement 😢

I saw a documentary once that interviewed some of the descendents of these women.

I went on a Jack the Ripper tour in London recently. The guide told us how the young girls would come from Ireland to try and get a job in London to send money home to their families. A gang would pick them up as soon as they arrived and move them into a block of grotty flats where they housed all the girls. Then they made them be prostitutes. They never let them keep the money and couldn’t get a boat back home. It was horrendous what happened to them.

I was last there in 2014, and I wish I had taken the tour from Mr. Jones' company. I did take another one, which seemed fine at the time. But having learned since of the places that we were not taken to- and I was staying right in the heart of it- I wish I had done more research. So much has changed even since 2014, such as Mitre Square, the new building over Dorset Street and the new station at the former Bucks Row. We were not told nearly enough detail, yet there was so much more I could have seen had I known where to look. My own fault, really.

[@GradKat]

I love the terms “crone” and “old hag” used to describe a desperately poor old woman, who was trying to make a few extra shillings from exhibiting a murder scene. If the writer had visited a stately home, and its occupant, a dowager duchess, had shown him a place where one of her illustrious ancestors had, say, been stabbed to death, I doubt he would have been so dismissive and condemnatory.

I'd agree even the very name and the letter from 'Jack the Ripper were created by the newspapers, nothing like sensationalism to generate sales. Equally the idea that all these women were prostitutes. Homeless alcoholics for sure, for instance Mary Chapman was an educated lady living on the Royal Windsor Estate with her own maid and carage.

Read the book *The Five* about the backgrounds and childhoods of the five women who were JTR victims and you will understand why others would seek to make money from their deaths.

If a chance came along to make something to ease their lives then they would take it.

The chapter on Mary Kelly must be very short. What we know about Mary Kelly prior to her death is zilch. No official record of her name, age, place of birth, marriage. Yes, Irish heritage but that’s about it. Everything else, is second hand; what she supposedly told others. My guess is she came from a Limerick based, extended Irish gypsy traveller family with links to England, Wales, Scotland, and God only knows were else, France? Hence, her good looks, ability to sing, dance, and relieve one of their money as quick as they could say, Jack Robinson…

At the time of this murder Burgho was taking part in a dog show in Brighton however, Barnaby was in London but a policeman took him to another crime scene and by the time he was brought here he couldn’t pick up the scent and was mocked by the Newspaper at the time. Edwin Brough was furious at this and feared villains would kill the dog and had him brought back to Scarborough.

They did treat these people as if they had no rights in their own home, as one woman put it. The inspector commented on one man’s bravery for being able to sleep there. They wouldn’t have been there if they had any other place to go. It might’ve earned them money but, no one would put up with that plus being wakened at all hours if they could afford rent without it. The one man was too ill to leave his bed and here was the inspector coming in on them in the middle of night (hence her holding a candle to show them the wall). The inspector could at least have visited at a decent hour of day and brought medicine, tea or a bottle of wine or something. If her husband was sick he obviously couldn’t work and a woman could hardly have supported her husband back then.

I wish people still talked like that now like they did back in those days!

My favourite narrator! I have no interest in Jack the Ripper or anything to do with the case (I am simply tired of the slew of accounts and theories), but by the gods, I could listen to you all day long, Master Jones!

[@annepollock8306]

Very interesting. Thanks.

[@ruiseartalcorn]

Very interesting indeed!

[@dantelovesbeatrice]

Respects - to the rare truths (we have yet to un-cover); and God bless all of you - for wanting them restored!
