This may sound a stupid question but I just bought the Jr and I am trying to understand the amp sounds. I can read what hot rod etc is..... but whos sounds are these meant to resemble?

They are generic representations of certain amplifiers or groups of amplifiers. For Example, in your manual the Tweed amp selections have specific models they match; the Bassman for Tweed 2. You don't have a full set of controls; however you can control the gain, volume and to a lesser extent tone.

The blackface selections are more general, emulating a family of amplifiers. Blackface 1 is just a bright tone like the early 60's amplifiers. This could be like a Tremolux or a Twin. You don't have the controls to emulate closed vs open back cabinets or speaker size, but you do have 3 good generic Fender tones.

You don't really have specific, "this guy on this song," modeling like some other modeling amplifiers do. You have flavors. Blackface is an early 60's to early 70's Fender sound. Brittish1 is a Vox like sound and the other Brittish are Marshall-ish sounds. They are not meant to be perfect copies, just flavors to get you close.
