Have you checked to see if some of John Ratliff's sons eventually moved to Indian Territory, later Ok. in 1907? Not sure if the Thomas J. RATLIFF I was interested in finding data on in 2005 is related to John Ratliff, however I know only that he came from AR. according to a relative. I wanted the info because my gg-aunt married a T.J. Ratliff in Hartshorne, OK. He was born in 1862 in AR. Happy New Year and best wishes in finding your people. Glynda Ellman
