I am curious about the children for Jan and Catherine. How have you determined that they have the daughter Elizabeth Tymerson who married Anthony Cossart? Have you found a will for Jan or some other document which connects them? Thanks for any help!

Happy Thanksgiving, Renea.

My Heritage has found over 40 matches to Jan T Valentine. I have been able to confirm 48 of them and all but 2 have Elizabeth as their daughter. I know that this is not an excellent reference. I have searched for more definitive sources without success. So I'm left with an acceptable level of comfort that the relationship between Elizabeth and her parents is stable.

I am open to any corrections that you may discover.

Thank you,

Let me be sure I understand you. Because 48 other people have this connection in their trees, it is thought to be accurate. Somewhere in the past, I wonder if there was a document - family Bible etc. that gave this info. As a serious researcher for over 40 years, I am always looking for primary documents, the proof of relationships. I am a descendant of Jacques Cozart through his son Anthony and would like to feel good about exploring the Valentine family. Maybe the proof is out there, somewhere. Thanks for responding.
