There is a very similar breed called a Patterdale Terrier. A well-bred Patterdale is the same size as a small JRT, and solid colored - usually black or chocolate (though sometimes with small white markings). However, this breed is still bred by enthusiasts for hunting, and therefore can be tenacious and willful - not for the faint of heart or a novice dog owner. They absolutely require an alpha human and obedience training from an early age (to an even greater extent that a JRT).
You can find larger dogs being sold as Patterdales, but be aware that these have had a lot of bull terrier bred back into them (pit, staff, amstaff, am bull, etc). The unscrupulous breeder will try to sell them as purebred Patterdale, but they are not. However, they will often be milder mannered than the true Patterdale, so if you're okay with a mixed breed, it's one option.

yes
Jacks can be white, white with black or tan markings, or tricolor (white, black, and tan). The white on the body helps the hunter see the dog in the field.
these dogs are the original jack russell dating back to the 16th century from irland and british channel which was crossed with white fox terrriers in the 19th century to get the white black and tan jacks that we see to day in the original jacks there was no white only a little on chest
It's possible that your dog is a mix of a Jack Russell Terrier and another breed, which might explain the tan color. Purebred Jack Russells typically have a white coat with black or brown markings, so the solid tan appearance suggests some variation. Another possibility is that your dog could belong to a different breed that shares similar traits with Jack Russells. Either way, it's great to have a unique and lovable companion!
Jack Sparrow is white he has a tan
Yes, black and tan Jack Russells are a recognized color variation within the breed. While the more common color combination is white with black or tan markings, black and tan Jack Russells can still be purebred and are considered normal within the breed standard.
Well, i have a friend and she said Irish jack Russell's, are extremely rare and that someone in her family sold one (he was black, white and tan) for millions to someone I'm guessing the person was rich, but i love Irish jack Russell's, personally i would say they are extremely rare so yeah, i guess you could say they are.
The Jack Russell is a smaller version of a Fox terrrier. A Fox terrier is derived from a wolf. I belive they just kept breeding small-legged Fox terriers until they got the Jack Russell terrier.
Parson Jack Russell's have longer legs and therefore can run faster
