Son Hans Valentine met in Mannheim and married Margaretha Philippes (Margarith Philipp) of French-Dutch descent. They had six children: Ann Barbara, John Michael, John Philip, Rosine Katharine, Susanna Margaretha and Johann Valentine, born in 1699, 1701, 1704, 1705, 1707 and 1710 respectively. Hans Valentine died in 1710, leaving his young family in the care of their grandfather. Only two years later Rev. Jean Ranc also died. Rosine Katharine and Johann Valentine died in childhood.
