Have a Ralsman (various spellings) Curtis Manchester, b. 1833 - father was Henry Manchester. With such a distinctive name as "Ralsman Curtis" have wondered if an earlier "Ralzaman Curtis" was Henry's father-in-law? or otherwise related to Ralzaman Curtis/Curtiss of Skaneatles, New York. Anyone have any further ideas? All helpful suggestions welcome.
