Max Valerio’s mother came from Black Foot descent, specifically from the Kainai or Blood Band reserve. He grew up on the Blood Reserve in Alberta, Canada.〔Valerio, Max.

Valerio’s father's family can be traced back to 1694 with the De Vargas expedition and 1598 with the Onate expedition, making their way into what is now Northern New Mexico. Valerio’s father identifies as Spanish and his ancestry can be connected to Sephardic Jewish roots from Spain, Portugal and Italy. Valerio's father and he both researched their family tree using the help of cousins and research databases to attempt to find what background their ancestors were. The Valerio family can be traced from Spain and then migrated to Italy during the Spanish Inquisition, they were Conversos and eventually migrated to New Spain in the New World. The Valerios are of Sephardic Jewish descent and fled Spain because of the Spanish Inquisition.〔 Valerio’s father was in the US Army for 20 years, which caused them to move around a lot, usually moving every year and a half.
