My notes below each of your questions:

1. [What info I have came from Family Search and they show
Alexander & Nancy Ratliff with children of William Jackson and James Harve Childress(do you have any info on other children)]

*** There were 3 known children of Alexander and Nancy Ann Ratliff Childers....William Jackson Childers, Mary Jane Childers, and James Harvey Childers.

Alex died before 1870. Nancy and the children can be found in her parent's household in the 1870 census:

1870 Pike Co KY Census # 56
John Ratliff 46 Farmer $800 / $ 350 KY
Tamsey Ratliff 44 KY
Richard Ratliff 13 KY
Andrew J. Ratliff 10 KY
Martin Ratliff 07 KY
Nancy Childers 24 KY
William Childers 09 KY
Mary J. Childers 07 KY
James H. Childers 03 KY

Nancy later married Thompson Slone and you can find two of the Childers children in his house in 1880:

1880 Pike Co KY Census (Lower Elkhorn, HH # 14)
Thompson Slone 28 H Farmer KY KY VA
Nancy Slone 37 W KY KY KY
Mary Jane Childers 16 S/D KY KY KY
James H. Childers 14 S/S KY KY KY

2. Also...they show Flemon & Charity Matney as Alexander parents but I cannot find where Flemon had a son named
Alexander...They show 8 children..for Flemon & Charity.
(William,Flemon jr,Walter,John,Nathaniel,Frank,Mary & Loven
unless William name was William Alexander)

*** Fleming and Charity Matney Childers had 11 known children...
Nathaniel Childers
Mary Ann Childers
Lovin Childers
Alexander Childers
Jackson Childers
Jane Childers
John Wesley Childers (MY GG-Grandpa)

You can find Alexander listed in Fleming and Charity's household in both the 1850 and 1860 Pike Co KY Census:
