Sorry, I don't think so.But it might be found in the "Richard Ratcliff Bulletin" all 11 or 12 issues of which are available online by going to Google and entering the above.
Further evidence that all or most Radcliffes, Ratcliffes, Ratliffs are related is the result of my DNA showing one
mismatch out of 12 markers with a descendant of Richard Ratcliff who emigrated ca. 1685 to Maryland, a Quaker.I am not descended from him or his brother but they were from Lancashire, England as were most Radcliffes/Ratcliffs, and other spellings.Lancashire is where the name originated.
