Including name, shop name, affiliation, official title, marriage, children, child marriage and so on. At that time, society paid special attention to genealogy. Not only did the court choose officials to search genealogy, but society also chose women and husbands according to genealogy.
In order to prevent counterfeiting, the state has also set up a genealogy bureau, and there are also families in society who specialize in compiling and studying genealogy. Therefore, Xie's earliest genealogy may be compiled by the official according to the information provided by Xie, and the earliest time will not exceed after the founding of the Eastern Jin Dynasty.

Family amusement
Family travel is a written record of private affairs. During the Spring and Autumn Period, the history book of the State of Jin was named Cheng, later called History Book Cheng. Huang Tingjian, a poet and calligrapher in the Northern Song Dynasty, wrote a diary "Yizhou Family Riding". Later generations compiled a genealogy and copied the name of "Family Riding", which means the history of the family. Genealogy is a book about clan or clan lineage, some of which are devoted to the lineage of emperors and generals, and some are devoted to the lineage of one surname and one clan and the deeds of important people.
The latter is also called genealogy, genealogy, genealogy or family riding. During the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, family status was particularly important, and the official selection of talents had to be tested by genealogy. As a result, the wind of repairing music is prevalent. Although the imperial examination system was implemented after the Sui Dynasty, many families were still compiling genealogies until the Ming and Qing Dynasties.
The main contents of genealogy include surname origin, spread and migration, branch ancestors, lineage passed down from generation to generation, generations of figures, ancestral halls, ancestors, clan rules and so on. , the text is orderly and ordinary.
Xie pu
Xie's genealogy quoted in Shi Shuo Xin Yu probably came from the official genealogy at that time. As for the ten volumes of Xie's genealogy contained in Sui Shu Jingji Zhi, it is a genealogy of another nature, that is, it may have been written by Xie's family members. But unfortunately, I can't see it today.
According to Shi Shuo Xin Yu and the history books of Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties and Sui Dynasty, the earliest complete genealogy of Xie's family is Shi Shuo Chen Xia Xie's genealogy edited by Wang Zao in Song Dynasty. The whole spectrum includes four parts: genealogy table, characters, other nationalities and names. There are 94 people from the Three Kingdoms to Sui and Chen counties, and 4 people will be recorded in the appendix.
The earliest existing genealogy is hidden in Japan, together with Shi Shuo Xin Yu in Song Dynasty and Xu Lu by Wang Zao. In recent years, it was jointly published with Shi Shuo Xin Yu in the form of Gong Ke edition photocopying.

Historical legends
Yue Fei wrote Preface for Xie's genealogy in Southern Song Dynasty.
Looking up at the sky, Beichen is Tian Shu, Sanyuan and Jiuyi are turning, like a group of worshippers, afraid to bow; Overlooking the geography, Kunlun is the town of China, with five embedded peaks and eight peaks connected, just like the relatives of ancestors, no one dares to know. This gentleman and his relatives are one, loyal and filial. Those who forget are rebellious, those who leave are abandoned, and those who delay are blasphemous. Unable to quit is greater than disloyalty; Five punishments are nothing more than unfilial.
As a minister, you should do your best; Be cautious and pursue the distance, but not careless, not careless! Look at Xie's genealogy today, trace back to the source and seize future generations. Zhao Ming Mu respected his ancestors, he was born with respect for his official position, his elders respected his teeth, and his liezan also respected his thoughts. What can he do without filial piety? Hey! It's a shame for Master Xie Zu to ask them if they are ignorant!
