Do you know who your ancestors were? How can you trace back to the source without a genealogy?

Do you know who your ancestors were? I don't know. It's okay. I'll tell you.

At present, many people ask for ancestor worship. People with genealogy are relatively simple to find, but what if people don't want to ask their ancestors? It's actually relatively simple. Many clever netizens have found relevant methods for everyone. Let me also introduce it to you. If you are interested, you can take a look together. Now it's time to find the roots and ask the ancestors!

Now many city people don't have genealogy. They only heard that their ancestors came from a village in a county of a province. There are still many rural people whose genealogy was destroyed when they broke the "four olds". Many people don't know the inheritance of their ancestral home and often ask their elders at home.

About genealogy and ancestral home, we must mention it twice, once in the Northern and Southern Dynasties and once in the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms. These are two troubled times. As a result, almost all people in China have lost their family lineage and ancestral home. The royal family in the Tang Dynasty had Xianbei ancestry, but they regarded Laozi as their ancestor, and Li Guang, the "flying general" in the Han Dynasty, was also their ancestor. In this respect, Zhu Yuanzhang is much more objective. When he became an emperor, he naturally wanted to honor his ancestors and compile the royal family tree, but he didn't recognize any celebrities as ancestors because he couldn't get in touch with them.

In addition to the war, there is another reason that leads to the broken bloodline and unclear ancestral home: migration and population flow. There are not only great immigrants such as Hongdong in Ming Dynasty, Huguang filling Sichuan, Jin and Song Dynasties moving to the south, Shandong people venturing into Guandong, but also the natural flow of population.

My family name is Xiao, 100 rows inside 139. My hometown has the only surname in the village, and I moved from Hongtong County, Shanxi Province in my early years. Originally a family tree, it finally disappeared into the hands of a village head during the Cultural Revolution. A few years ago, the old people in the village planned to rebuild their genealogy, which was not a continuation. Without the original genealogy, it is difficult.

The first is to collect basic information, copy and sort out ancestral memorial tablets, ask the old people to sort out clan relations together, and find the records of ancestral villages moved from county records and the deeds of the original name of the village. Sort out the basic outline of a family tree.

Then all the living people in recent decades are statistically summarized and compiled with their ancestors. For the lack of some family genealogy records, extensive textual research and supplement were made, and then the first draft of genealogy was formed.

After that, the first draft of genealogy was reviewed and approved, including name taboo, birth and death order, etc. Add a note to the icon of the ancestral grave, and make a biography for the ancestors who have contributed, are famous and have deeds. Finally printed and distributed.
