The final man to be found on record, John Ralph, vaguely has much information about him. His DOB is 1725, but his place of origin nor his DOD are recorded. More research will be needed to expand to what part of Europe Ralph's from. Ancestry was a good option for a while for ancestral research but was sold to Blackstone Group, an investment group located in NYC. Good luck Ayylogs, for more research into the Ralphamutt Dynasty. Have a great eternal harvest.
