Biography:
The grandson and namesake of the first American Vladimir Kyrilytch Ratcliffe came to Mississippi in the early 19th century, becoming one of the men who "started Jefferson" (338). Eula, who is the source for this information, does not say any more about him than that. The descendants who bear his name through the following generations "forgot how to spell it Ratcliffe and just spelled it like it sounds" - i.e. Ratliff (338).
