To: [email protected] <[email protected]> Ratliff hunters: sometimes my Ratliffs added a C in the middle of their name but I am using the standard spelling. My ancestors were in the Pocohontas, Bath, Lewis Counties (West) Virginia area: Richard Ratliff (b. circa 1800) married Ellen Gibson (b.c. 1809): children according to the 1850 Bath Co. Va. Census: Francis b.c. 1829 Harriet b.c. 1832 William b.c. 1834 Cynthia b.c. 1836 (Morgan?) b.c.1838 Warrick b.c. 1841 Mary b.c. 1843 Marcellus b.c. 1845 Richard b.c. 1847 William Ratliff (born circa 1834) married Elizabeth Catherine Gay in Lewis County (W) VA. in 1868 three children: Andrew Richard Ratliff born circa 1876 married Bertie Gertrude Helmick Martha Ellen Ratliff (1881-1956) Lewis County, West Virginia she married John C. Taylor, Sr. (1873-1936) Warrick C. Ratliff (June 10, 1870--Oct 14, 1938) Are there any connections with anyone else. I would be interested in knowing if Richard Ratliff had any brothers! Any information would be appreciated!
