TL;DR
Jolly (1965), tackling this problem from a different viewpoint, gives a very elegant solution to the problem of finding maximumlikelihood estimates of the unknown population parameters and gives the means and variances of these estimates.

The first purpose of the present paper is to derive a general probability distribution designed to fit the majority of capture-recapture problems involving a 'single' population.
