History Club brain teaser

 

My place of birth lies far away
From where I make my home today
Where Unknown jack once made his name,
11 'ladies' brought him fame,

Of names I have had 3 or 4,
But my current one defines me more
My brother marks time for a nation's queens
Though my sisters sing of fruit it seems

Namesakes I have of many creeds
One went to space on a god of speed
On his return a watery home
A locker owned by davy jones

When I reflect upon my past
I am ashamed to say I cracked
Two Johns came to my aid that time
But then I cracked a second time

When better I sang but sounded wrong
But, well again I then gave song
Philip wrote a song for me
Which then was used by Monty P

When used with letters I proclaim
That even old I'll work the same
I can't be beaten, for you I'll stick
Do you know my name? or are you licked?
