Reuben Ratliff
M, #2882, b. 1805, d. 1871
A Reuben is on some lists and I thought he might be the same person as our John (John Reuben or Reuben John) but a Reuben does exist. On the other hand, the Reuben in people's trees is said to have been born in North Carolina. That's not where John and Charlotte were! On the other hand, a geneanet tree has him born in Tazewell, VA, and dying in 1873 in Kansas City, not Arkansas.
A Reuben Ratcliff married a Sarah Johnson in 1837. This cannot be our John because our John's children were born in Kentucky starting at 1829.
Parents
Birth | 1805 | In Virginia, United States. |
Marriage | 28 March 1837 | In Tazewell County, Virginia, United States.1 |
Death | 1871 | Wife applies for civil war benefit as a widow at age ~66. Some say he died in 1873 in Kansas City. Some say his possible father John died (nearby) in Jackson County, Missouri. A possible brother John (my ancestor) died in Platte County, Missouri.2 |
Misc | | Parents. Some list a Reuben as a child of John and Charlotte. Reuben is listed one place as a son of John A Ratliff. I've also seen a John S but don't know who is who.
"Some Descendants" does not list a Reuben. |
Residence | 1850 | In Jeffersonville, Tazewell, Virginia, United States. This says he was born in North Carolina, but otherwise seems correct.3 |
Military | 5 August 1871 | Civil War Kentucky Infantry. He might have been in the civil war in Kentucky (and maybe Indiana? can't read the handwriting). In 1871 Sarah applied as a widow.2![Rueben Ratliff in military](../st/picicon.png) |

There is another record that names a Reuben Ratliff whose father was John who served in Indiana (I think it reads Ind) and Kentucky (Ky)infantry.
