ID's should never start with numbers. Change your id's to image1, image2, image3, ... Then use:

$('#image1').functionToExecute();

The id tag is supposed to be unique within the HTML document. So, assuming you've constructed the HTML appropriately, you should be able to select the li tag with just:

$('#1')

This is a basic JQuery/CSS selector:

var deleteImage =  $("ul").find( "#1.image" );
