Ralph Stanley
This link is not confirmed by any evidence, it is an assumption based on the fact that both Ralphs in question have roughly the same dates, both Ralphs were married to an Elzabeth (Woods in the case of Ralph son of Thomas) and that one Ralph has a daughter named Dorothea, and the other a mother called Dorothea. The problem is not helped by the habit of repeating forenames throughout the Stanley family, particularly in the case of Charles, Henry and John.
