I was searching through family history and found your story and history of the Vallance family. My great-great grandfather was Samuel Henry Vallance of Ky then Missouri. As I understand it, they had 9 children which included Ida Belle, Minnie, Luella, Cordia Mae, Edward, William, James and Sidney , I am not sure of the last one.

My great-grandfather was Walter Freeman Morss and Ida Belle Vallance my great-grandmother. My Grandpa was Frank James Morss born in Patterson, MO. My Grandpa moved later to Illinois from Mo., but my Dad Ralph Morss was born in Patterson or Piedmont, Mo.

I suppose that makes my grandpa's mom(Ida Belle) a sister to your relative Sidney Anna Vallance. Are you from the James side? She married a James I believe. That would make William Franklin James my grandpa's Uncle.

Thanks, Connie Morss Knight
