Hi Lara,
I have some information about the Valoe family. My grandmother, the late Gretchen Valoe, was married to Arthur Leon Valoe. His nickname is, "Grandpa Joe." They had two children together, (my aunts), JoAnn Florence Valoe and Sandra Faye Valoe. They have numerous children and a couple of grandchildren.
Grandpa Joe is still alive and is living in the Milwaukee, WI area. I believe that the suburb is Cudahy. I do not have any information on where the family came from. I do have names and other information on his decendants. You might try to look him up and give him a call. He is a very nice guy.
If you need any additional information just let me know.
Good luck!
Jeremy
