Annie Chapman (c. 1841 – 1888), born Eliza Ann Smith, was a prostitute living in 19th-century London, England known for being the second victim of the notorious serial killer Jack the Ripper during the Whitechapel murders.
Biography
On 1 May 1869, Annie married her relative John Chapman, a coachman at All Saints Church in London's Knightsbridge district. The couple then moved to Whitechapel in 1886.[1]
With her husband's death, Annie turned to prostitution, believing that she would not earn any income with other jobs. She joined one of Lady Olwyn Owers' brothels. She then spent her time without a proper home, and usually stayed at the Crossingham's lodging house at 35 Dorset Street where she paid eight pence a night for a double bed.[1]
In the early morning of 8 September, the supposed body of Annie Chapman was found steps from the property of 29 Hanbury Street by its elderly resident John Davis. He alerted his neighbors, and together, they sought out a policeman to report the murder.[2]
However, an investigation by Master Assassin Evie Frye suggested that the real Chapman may have in fact survived, and that her brother Jacob—in an attempt to end Jack's reign of terror—had replaced her with an initiate from the British Brotherhood of Assassins, due to the evidence of an Assassin ring found at the crime scene.[3]
