They deal with all spellings of the Ratliff/Radcliff/Ratcliff name. Send your query and it will be published. Chances are a great deal of work has already been done on your name. A SMALL donation might be appreciated to cover mailing, etc. Also, try entering "Ratliff" followed by a comma and then "genealogy" into your search. It might be of some help. Also, visit your local Mormon Library (Family History Center). It should be in your white pages under "Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints." They charge nothing and have special computer and microfiche/microfilm that should be of some help to you. Be patient. Sincerely, Gary Radcliffe

I have just started my research on this family and have nothing execpt a last name. In an enterview many years ago Nancy Elizabeth Shrieves states that her mother was a Ratliff and that she died when Nancy was very young. This is what I know on this family: Nancy Elizabeth Shrieves b: Nov.30,1849 in Chambers Co.,AL. d: Jan. 1,1950 in Gotebo TX. m: 1870 in Covington Co.,AL. to Eli Reid Merrill. Children were: Thomas Greenberry, Rufus, William, Sarah, Walter, Lula, Martha, John C., Flora, Eli Reid Jr. Her father is: Possibly Thomas Shrieves b: abt 1824 in VA. married ? Ratliff. d: bef 1870 children: Nancy Elizabeth, Mary. Anyone researching Ratliffs of Chambers Co.,AL. or any county in south Alabama, do you have a marriage of a Shrieves/Shreeves and Ratliff ? Does anyone have access to Chambers Co.,AL. marriage records, that can look this up for me? The marriege would be sometimes prior to 1849. Thank You Becky
