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
