Their is One Valentine site I know of at present. It's run by Ann White. Called Be My Valentine. She posts often on Gen-Web Valentine Board. She is also a member at Ancestry. Good Luck Ann Valentine

Looks like they married in another county than Effingham.

BRADBURY, JOHN C VALENTINE, MARY JANE 11/19/1866 00B/0029 HENDERSON

My G gfthr, John Valentine, born c. 1830, Nc. Came to Decatur Co GA c. 1850. Married Malinda Barber 1860. Can not trace either back before the above info. Any info on either/both would be appreciated.

I don't suppose you have any idea where in NC he was born? Very early on, there were Valentine's in northeastern NC in the Currituck County and Tyrrell County area. I have found them very hard to trace. . . didn't leave much of a paper trail.

My second great grandfather, Valentine Creef was born in Tyrrell Co., NC in 1816. I have tried in vain to determine if there was a connection to the Valentine family but as yet have found nothing.
