Several sources have confirmed that Abbaye Notre-Dame Valence, Couhé-Vérac, Vienne, Poitou-Charentes, IS the correct Abbey of Valence.

Peter Stewart noted:This abbey was founded by Hugues X of Lusignan (died on crusade in 1249) as a daughter house of Clairvaux. The lords of Lusignan were also seigneurs of
Couhé.
