Valle was once the owner and the road was then Valle Road. It later was changed to Valley Road and then to Jesus Valley Road.
I have wondered about the name of that road for almost 20 years. It never ceases to amaze me about the things I learn on this forum. And now it's fast too! Thanks for the info.
