The first "canonical" victim was Mary Ann (also known as "Polly") Nicholls, who was killed on 31 August 1888, but it is now fairly widely accepted by commentators and theorists that Martha Tabram, who was killed on 7 August 1888, was most likely an earlier Ripper victim. There are also a number of non-fatal attacks on women earlier in 1888 which potentially fit the Ripper's modus operandii.

What year did Jack The Ripper kill his first victims?
It is very difficult to determine certain aspects of a killer when he was never caught or identified. For over 100 years it was commonly thought that the killer known as Jack The Ripper killed for the first time when he killed Mary Ann (Polly) Nichols on August 31, 1888, but is now generally accepted that Nichols was not the Ripper's first victim and possibly not even his second. Martha Tabram, found murdered in the early morning hours of August 6-7, 1888, was almost surely JTR's victim also. Whether he killed prior to Tabram's murder we may never know, but it is safe to say that his crimes began in earnest in 1888.
