[3] He played viola in the memorial concerts (the Handel Commemoration) held for George Frederic Handel in London in 1784; his son, Ann's brother Thomas Valentine (1759 – c. 1800) was a second violinist in the same concerts, and performed in London for at least the next decade.
[5] Another uncle, Henry Valentine, was an oboist and ran a music shop in Leicester.
Ann's younger sister Sarah (1771–1843) was an organist at St Martin's Church in Leicester from 1800,[3] and composed at least one work, The British March and Quickstep for the Pianoforte.
In 1790 she published a set of ten sonatas for harpsichord or piano with violin or flute accompaniment.
She continued to publish music, although only some of it has survived; the ten sonatas and an arrangement of the strathspey Monny Musk are available in a modern edition.
