In Memorium: Carrie Brown

[Howard Brown]

130 years ago today, Carrie Brown and a man listed on the hotel register by the name of ' C. Kniclo' went to Room 31 of the East River Hotel. She never left the room.
Rest In Peace, Carrie.

As Stan Reid has recently mentioned, April 24th marks the 125th anniversary of the death of Carrie Brown.

RIP....

[Stan Reid]

Yes, Rest In Peace Carrie.

R.I.P. Carrie!

One of the more interesting and yet often overlooked victims attached to the Ripper case. R.I.P.

Cheers,
Adam.

Almost 9 years ago, Nina and I tried to track her final resting place down....but ( stop reading if you've heard this before)....believe it or not, located a different Carrie Brown buried in Salem....also married to a Charles Brown...and who was also buried in 1891.
And who also died in New York City.

Day late, but yesterday was the 127th anniversary of the death of Carrie Brown in the East River Hotel in New York's Lower East Side.

128 years ago, Carrie Brown was murdered in a seedy room at the East River Hotel, in Lower Manhattan.

RIP Carrie....in that some of us on this side of the dirt are still looking for the name of the Danish farmhand who done you in.

Brutally murdered in the East River Hotel on April 24, 1891....

RIP Carrie.

Thank you, Howard.
Some years back I asked if anything was known about her first husband, who came from Denmark. Some new information might have come online since then, so any details could help id him.

It might help flesh out her story, give some details of her earlier (happier?) life.

Hi Howard,

I have nothing of importance to add to your current debate, and I fully realize that 'C. Knicklo' was said to be a fictitious name, but have you ever noticed that there was a 'C. Kniclo' (Carozeo Niclo) who immigrated into New York City from Italy on 15 May 1890--eleven months before the Brown murder? No 'K', of course, but phonetically the same as Kniclo.

From his naturalization papers, he was a laborer who settled in Long Island (across the East River from the hotel), but, having looked around over the years, I have failed to find him in the 1900 Census, etc.

Probably a red-herring, but a slightly odd twist nonetheless. There are blonde Italians.

Thanks for that Rajah....I have the bloodhound over here on it and I appreciate you sharing it with us.



Great job, boss.
