My great-grandparents were James Price and Minnie Eliza Valentine. My grandparents were Milas Leonard and Ella Mae Valentine. My parents are Eugene Leroy Sterud and Mary Magdalene Valentine.

I still have not been able to find any more info on Thomas Tyler. Also, the Cherokee part is still under research...but nothing absolute yet! lol

If you find anything more, please let me know.

I have not been able to find anymore information on Thomas Tyler Valentine. I do remember my mother saying that they were German. I am curious as to your connection to Thomas Tyler. You mentioned that I had you listed as a living relative. There are so many I have no way of knowing the connection. My great- grandmother, Mary Isabel Valentine, was the daughter of Benjamine Valentine and Sarah Welch. She married my great-grandfather, James H. Jestice. They died in 1941 as the result of a car accident. Please let me know of any information that you are abel to find. Thanks, Carolyn
