Browser support for specific jQuery version

jQuery states that supported browser are

Chrome: (Current - 1) and Current
Edge: (Current - 1) and Current
Firefox: (Current - 1) and Current
Internet Explorer: 9+

v2 dropped support for IE 6-8.

The problem: what exact Chrome versions are supported by ,say, jQuery 2.1 (and jQuery 1.11)?
They are released on the same day in Jan 2014 http://blog.jquery.com/2014/01/24/jquery-1-11-and-2-1-released/

the JQuery site does indicate the following

Chrome: (Current and Current - 1)
Edge: (Current and Current - 1)
Firefox: (Current and Current - 1)
Explorer: 9+

Which means that the official release of JQuery is supported by the current browser version + plus its predecessor.

What I have found is that Chrom(e|ium) version 45.0.2454.0 supports all the way up to JQuery 3.2.1

I've been trying to test various browser versions to see what version of JQuery is supported. I can only go back to 45.0.2454.0 as I cannot find installs for anything older.

For future reference I have found the following to be true:

FireFox version 6 and greater supports JQuery 3.2.1
FireFox >= to 3.5.1 and < 6 supports up to version 1.11.3
FireFox < 3.5.1 supports up to 1.6.4

Opera 12.02 and greater supports JQuery 3.2.1
Opera < 12.02 supports up to version 1.11.3
