Interesting site, Gary. However, when I checked "Ratcliff" it said there were 1729.
There's the story that our surname derived from Red Cliffs in England. And if one checks "Redcliffe" there are 150 with that surname.
Then there's the claim that we are connected with royalty because some Ratliffs have web toes--but that's a whole different story.
