Ralph Caveen b 1791

Does anyone know who Ralph's parents are? I have see a thread which suggested that Ralph was mentioned in a will written by Thomas in which Ralph was described as his brother, therefore the assumption was that Ralph's parents were Thomas and Elinor Quayle. The problem with this is that Thomas died in 1788, 3 years before Ralph's birth. Elinor also died in 1791, possibly relating to the birth of Ralph? Was Ralph illegitimate? Did Elinor remarry
