Suggest checking in with the Ohio School for the Deaf and the city of Toledo. He has no living heirs, he kicked his wife out of the house when she went blind. When Ralph passed on, the city of Toledo flocked into his house and "ranksacked" his home with so many historical materials and were sold off to collectors (I am one of them) many letters were "clipped" out and sold as the signatures. (That is a inexcusable thing to to any historical items! Observed that many of the Hoy letters that Hoy wrote to Ralph were cut out his name and sold on ebay and other auction events.
Its been reported that he (Ralph) had books all over his house and even on the stairs.
He was the one who corrected all the "hearies" historican stating that Jackie Robinson was the "first" black into the Majors. Ralph was correct that Jackie is the third black. All the baseball historican realized the error of their ways and stated that Ralph is right but they all went on ignored him excessively. The hearies "claim the credit but not given to Ralph - thats why you all say hes grouchy. I had met him and whoa he was grouchy - his way or the highway. in sense I "blame" the hearies that didn't give Ralph the credit when due!
