I am curious to know if there are any recent (the past 50 years)interviews with ancestors of JTR victims, and whattheir stories may be. SPRYDER, didn't you say that you thought you may be decended from one of the victims? thanx for any comments.

Hi L.K.

I would take a look at Neal Shelden's excellant books on JTR and his victims, as well as the specific books on Annie Chapman and Kate Eddowes.

They had small print runs and are already scarce.

Best
