Marcus W. Ratliff 1880 Morgan Co. AL
According to the 1880 Morgan Co., AL, census, my great-grandfather E.M. Lankford was employed by a dry goods merchant named Marcus W. Ratliff, who was listed as age 27 (to wit, b. ca. 1853), with wife Sallie, one year old son Odad, and 19 year old brother Schorn Ratliff.They all lived near Somerville, Alabama.
I was wondering if there are any descendants of Marcus Ratliff monitoring this and, if so, whether you may have any documents or information that might be helpful to me in learning more about my great-grandfather.There is a lot of confusion even as to what his actual name was, behind the initials E.M.In that census, he was on a page by himself as a late reporter but showing that he was a hired hand and showing the same residence as Marcus Ratliff.He was listed there as Ezrey M. Langford.
Any information you may have to share would be appreciated.
