Guang's genealogy

Preface to Guang's Fu (excerpted from Guang's Genealogy)

Inheritance of surname: Due to Shun's political clarity, at the beginning of the establishment of the Zhou Dynasty, Shun's descendants were named (now Henan). At the end of the Spring and Autumn Period, Chen declined, and the royal family Chen Wan went to Qi State to take Tian as his surname (Tian and Chen were granted leave). After many years of pioneering work and charity, he lent grain to the people in a big fight and collected loans in a small fight, gradually gaining the trust of Qi people, and the clan flourished again. Finally, the Chiang family (the descendant of Lu Shang) became the master of Qi. After the Tian family came to Yan State, at the end of the Warring States Period, there appeared an aggressive chivalrous man, who was the source of Zhao's surname and the ancestor Tian Guang. Tian Guang was outraged and introduced Jing Ke to Yan Taizi Dan, stabbing the king of Qin. After Qin destroyed Yan, investigate the case thoroughly. Later generations, Tian Guang took his father's name as his son's surname, and avoided Shanxi (temporarily suspected here, pending textual research), so Jiang County (now Shanxi) was the county hope. At the end of Yuan Dynasty, Shandong had ten rooms and nine empty spaces, but Shanxi was peaceful and had a large population. The establishment of the Ming Dynasty forced Shanxi people to emigrate to Shandong, Anhui and other places, which was called "big locust tree immigrants" in history, and people with wide surnames were among them. A branch of Yangxin in Binzhou, Shandong Province is roughly like this: In the first year of Hongwu in the Ming Dynasty, people from Leping, Shanxi Province (now Xiyang County, Shanxi Province) moved to Shandong and lived in Guang Jia Village, Liupowu Town, Yangxin County. Grandfather is loyal to the monarch, practicing medicine to help the world and benefit one side. Zu Hongguang, the third generation, was the commander-in-chief of Mingnan Military Forces Company, located in the military forces grave in the west of Daguang Village. It is said that a heart protector was unearthed a few years ago. The fifth ancestor, Guangzuli, lived in Wutai, Shanxi Province, and Sanyi County, Mizhi, Shaanxi Province. Guang Mao, the "seventh ancestor", promoted his participation in politics through three subjects: inspecting politics, conferring officials on real politics and promoting military attache. He was detained in Wuli, just north of the village and south of Zhangblacksmith village. Before the Cultural Revolution, there were stone statues, horses and other relics, and the old school in the village took a stone tablet (not checked). Now the Shinto in front of the tomb has disappeared, leaving only the ancestors and couples. Nine ancestors were aboveboard and eloquent. He is a great calligrapher and is good at flower-and-bird painting. The county museum has a pair of its couplets, which have a good reputation, such as "one word into the wood" and "one word is worth a thousand dollars" Guang, the tenth ancestor, is good at writing poems. His genealogy now contains nearly 100 poems, and he is the author of Dan Zhi Dan. Guang Jia Village has a * * * Four-volume Genealogy of Chongzhen Year in Ming Dynasty, which records in detail the genealogy of Guangxu Year in Qing Dynasty (* * * four-volume) after seven years of Jinshi in Guangheng Chongzhen, Tongcheng. Tongcheng Shiguang is another branch of Shiguang. Roughly in the early Ming Dynasty, there were six brothers named Guang in Qimen, Anhui Province. Eldest brother, second brother and sixth brother moved to Tongcheng, where they were honored as the third ancestor of light, saying that Xiguang (the offspring of eldest brother and second child) is different from Dongguang (the offspring of sixth child). From the Ming, Qing and even the Republic of China, Tongcheng Guangxing was a local aristocratic family, and later generations were famous for their eagerness to learn. They are called "scholarly family, hometown of osmanthus".

According to the Guang family tree of Xiyang, there are many surnames today. By extension, it is nothing more than what our ancestors did. It is only a long time ago that it is difficult to remember the lost time. As far as we know, Xingtai county in Zhili is a stock, and the ancestors are taboo, and the two branches are also out; Xingtai Shishan Village and Yinguo Village, where did the long branches come from? JD.COM's mouth is the most extensive, and Leping is out, and to Pingding State, long branches are out; Heshun county Bili Village, where Leping came from; In the early years of Hongwu in Daming, his ancestors lived in Xinyang County, Shandong Province, and gave more; The ancestors of Zhangqiu County are afraid of honesty, the ancestors of Licheng County are afraid of glory, and the ancestors of Tongcheng County are afraid of honesty, and they are also the ancestors of Xinyang County. Things in this mountain have been handed down from generation to generation outside Zhili, and I don't know how much homework I have done. However, although generations will come, world cooperation is just my family name. Generally speaking, they are descendants of Zhaozu Tianguang in Chu Shi, Gu Yan.
