I have no record or knowledge of her parentage or descendents. A nickname for Esther is Essie, could it be misspelled to Alsey? I have no idea. If I were to guess, her parents probably where James Ralston and Esther Lyons who came from Ireland about 1797 and settled into Guernsey Co, OH in 1806. James and John are named as being sons of this couple, but a third name, Henry N, is given without stating relation. No daughters are mentioned anywhere that I have read. This is the only Ralston family in Guernsey Co until about 1855. Hope this helps. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
