Biography
V
Valentinus, or Valentine, pope for thirty or forty days in 827, was a Rome|Roman by birth, and, according to the Liber Pontificalis, was first made a deacon by pope Paschal I|Paschal I (817-824). The entries in the Liber Pontificalis at this date are contemporary, added shortly after the death of each pope, and, so, although reflecting biases of the authors, they are at least reasonably accurate. Nothing further is known of Valentinus' history. Pope| Predecessor=Pope Eugenius II|Eugenius II| Successor=Pope Gregory IV|Gregory IV|Dates=827 from the 9th edition (1888) of an unnamed encyclopedia
