Dixie, I believe you have the correct family. On the 1880 census, right next door to this family it shows a "RATCLIFF" family with a son John age 6 years.

It shows them residing in "District #87". A little more research and you might find that location. Also, check the county records of birth for both Sarah Perry and John Ratcliff. Also check for a marriage record, a lot of marriage records also records the parents of the bride and groom.
Good hunting, William Perry
