What number murder was Mary Jane Kelly of Jack the Ripper?
For many years it was believed the Mary Kelly's murder on November 9, 1888, was Jack The Ripper's last murder. This simply is not true. A prostitute named Francis Coles was murdered in Whitechapel in 1891 who is now also thought to be killed by JTR. It is also most likely that Mary Ann 'Polly' Nichols was not the Ripper's first victim. At the very least Martha Tabram, who was found murdered several weeks before Nichols, was the Ripper's also. If this is true than Kelly would have been the Ripper's sixth victim, not the fifth.

When did Jack the Ripper's crimes happen?
It is hard to determine the scope of the Ripper's crimes when there are so many different opinions as to who was or was not a victim. In all probability Martha Tabram was a victim. Tabram preceeded Mary Ann Nichols in death by several weeks. It is also believed that the Ripper killed at least until 1891, and a good possiblity even beyond this date. It is relatively safe to say that the Ripper's crimes began as early as the murder of Tabram on August 7, 1888 to the February 13, 1891 murder of Frances Coles.

When was Jack The Ripper's first murder discovered?
There are differing opinions as to whom the Ripper's first victim was. Many believe that his first victim was Mary Ann (Polly) Nichols. It is more than likely his first murder was Martha Tabram. Tabram, a working prostitute in London's Whitechapel district, was found murdered on August 6, 1888, several weeks before Nichols. If this is the case, which I believe it is, then the body was discovered in the early morning hours, 3:30 a.m., in George Yard Buildings, Whitechapel.
Was Jack The Ripper accused of other murders?
The records states 5 murder victims. Some have reasons to believe that the first victim was really Martha Tabram who was murdered Tuesday, August 7, 1888, and there are important considerations for questioning whether Stride was a Ripper victim. Just forty-five minutes after the body of Elizabeth Stride had been discovered, the body of a second prostitute, Catherine Eddowes, was found. Catherine Eddowes look as a ripper victim but Stride did not. Philip Sugden wrote in his book, The Complete History of Jack the Ripper, "There is no simple answer. In a sentence: at least four, probably six, just possibly eight." We can also consider more victims to the ripper.//Without a doubt, Jack The Ripper killed more than the original five victims that are associated with this case. Martha Tabram may or may not have been the first victim, or she may have been his second or third. Due to the very nature of serial murder, there is usually an escalation of some sort as the killer moves from one victim to the next. This is obvious with the crimes of JTR. The mutilations became increasingly horrific with each woman he killed.Elizabeth Stride, the first in the 'double event' was not mutilated for a very good reason. The killer had only enough time to cut her throat before he was interrupted by a pedestrian. Had he stayed even a few more moments he would have been caught. This was bad news for Catherine Eddows who was murdered less than an hour later. The Ripper did find the time to mutilate Eddows. He destroyed her face almost to being unrecognizable. The victim count for Jack The Ripper is most likely closer to twelve or thirteen which included the murder of Francis Coles in 1891.//Only you would think that coming close to being identified, the ripper would run finding another victim so quickly. Any ways, the doubt exists.
Where did Jack the Ripper go after the murders stopped?
As 'Jack' was never identified this fact is not known. There would be very few choices as to what became of the Ripper after his last victim. He could be dead. He could have moved or he killed until he started to get old and maybe a little infirm. He was most likely arrested for some other offense and jailed, without the police realizing whom they had.
