Note: This is a triple inscription main monument view for Robert F Ratcliff and his two wives. Each also have individual footstones with their names and DOB/DOD inscriptions (which in one case varies from other sources, see note below).

~~~~~~~~
Robert F Ratcliff
Feb. 9, 1825 - Nov. 20, 1912


Wife #1 (married 1849):
Martha Helen Pike Ratcliff
Aug. 5, 1827 - July, 1862
Note: Aged 34y 11m 23 from her obituary. Her obituary gives her DOD as July 13, 1862, her footstone engraved inscription uses July 12, 1862, and the obituary for her husband Robert F Ratcliff states that she died on July 10, 1862. Will just use "July, 1862" for this entry due to these three conflicting dates.


Wife #2 (married 1863):
Margaret Armstrong Ratcliff
Aug. 6, 1830 - Feb. 1, 1911

Margaret was married first to Dr. Benjamin F. FREEMAN, who died in 1860 and is buried in Fell Cemetery.
