Ratliff/Ratcliffe Cemetery, Crofton, Kentucky, 2001

The Ratliff Cemetery outside of Crofton, Kentucky, where several of my ancestors are buried.  This cemetery is on the property that was last owned by Gwendolyn Wilkens, granddaughter of John A. B. Ratliff.  John A. B. was my great great grandfather, on right

The property is still owned by the family (a niece of Gwen's) and is not to be sold out of the family, unless it is sold to the University of Kentucky as a biological preserve.
