Where is the earliest unearthed genealogy of Zhou?
In the early Ming Dynasty, a group of famous writers prefaced the genealogy of Zhou family in Jishui, Jiangxi. Such as Preface to Zhou Family Tree in Jishui Mulberry Garden, Preface to Zhou Family Tree (revised by Hanlin Academy in the early Ming Dynasty) and Preface to Zhou Family Tree by Jin Youzi (revised by Zhou Yanqi, Dali Temple and Dr. Zhou Qifeng in imperial academy in the early Ming Dynasty).

Ancestor: Hou Ji.

There are four main sources:

1. After Zhou Chang and Zhou Ren. According to the "River Map Method", there was a general Zhou Chang in Xuanyuan of the ancient Yellow Emperor and Taishi Zhouren in Shang Dynasty. Their descendants all took Zhou as their surname, and scattered in ancient Runan (now Henan and Anhui), Lujiang (now Anhui and Hubei), Xunyang (now Jiangxi), Linchuan (now Jiangxi) and (now Henan).

The ancestor of Zhou surname-Hou Ji

2. From Ji surname, ancestor Hou Ji. Hou Ji's mother is Jiang Zhou and his father is Di Ku. In the early years of the Western Zhou Dynasty, people regarded Hou Ji as the ancestor of Zhou people, and Gu's father (that is, Zhou), the descendant of Hou Ji, was forced by Di to lead his family to migrate from Tai to Xiazhouyuan, Qishan, Shaanxi, hence the name Zhou. When I arrived at King Jichang, I took the country as my surname. There is another saying that the main source of Zhou's surname is that the Duke of Zhou had a black shoulder in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty (that is, Duke Huan of Zhou) and once led an army to assist King Huan of Zhou in his crusade against Zheng. In the later Zhou Dynasty, there was civil strife because of the succession to the throne, and the Black Duke was involved and killed. Some descendants changed their surname to Zhou because of "Duke Zhou".

3. Ethnic minorities change their surnames to Zhou. The Official History of Shu Wei records that he took his brother as his surname and later changed his surname to Hu. The second brother is Platts, later changed to Zhou. "During the first year of the Tang Dynasty, ethnic minorities changed their surnames to Zhou. On behalf of the north (now northeast Shaanxi), the surname was changed to Zhou, and the surname was changed from Yi (minority) to Zhou.

His surname was changed to Zhou. During the congenital and Kaiyuan years of the Tang Dynasty, in order to avoid the anonymity of Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty, Ji's surname was changed to Zhou's. After the death of Liang Chengyou in the Five Dynasties, Zhu Wen named him Zhou. At the end of the Yuan Dynasty, the Su family in Quanzhou, Fujian changed to Zhou and moved to Hsinchu, Taiwan Province. In the early years of the Qing Dynasty, the great-grandson of Ji Wang in Changsha of the Ming Dynasty fled to Ningxiang after his death and changed his surname to Zhou to avoid disaster.

foreword

In the middle of Qing Dynasty, Qian Daxin wrote Preface to the Genealogy of Zhou Family, introducing the origins of Zhou Family in Shanghai in Ming Dynasty and Jiading in Qing Dynasty. The preface says: "Before the Zhous, they moved from Zhou Pu to Jiading. This branch has been spreading for more than a hundred years. " This passage provides important clues for future generations to inspect the Zhou family in Shanghai and Jiading. This preface greatly appreciates the genealogy of Zhou family in Jiading, Shanghai: "Looking at the genealogy of Zhou family today, we should be cautious, sparse and lacking." Xun (true) can be the law of inheritance. "

Zhou people attached great importance to genealogy and genealogy and had a tradition of compiling genealogy.

After the establishment of the Zhou Dynasty, an official "mini-history" was established, which was responsible for the management of clan lineage and clan affairs, and a fairly complete official genealogy system was established. The imperial seals in Shiben and Daidai, which were handed down from later generations, were compiled and handed down at that time, and obviously had the nature of genealogy of later generations, so they were recognized as the first monograph on surnames in China and the earliest genealogy of Zhou.

The real genealogy of Zhou people should appear after Wei and Jin Dynasties. During the Wei and Jin Dynasties, due to the formation and development of the gate valve system, people attached great importance to genealogy, and people wrote genealogy in succession. During the Eastern Jin Dynasty, Jia Bizhi, a famous genealogist, compiled the Genealogy of 116 Counties in Eighteen States (Volume 7 12), which included the famous genealogy of Zhou family in Lujiang, Shucheng and Yixing.

In order to more accurately record the origin, development history and evolution process of his family, people surnamed Zhou wrote genealogy privately. Due to the long history, the genealogy of Zhou family compiled in this period has been completely lost.

In the Tang dynasty, the situation of unification was more conducive to the revision of music. The wind of official and private genealogy is extremely popular, and the genealogy of people surnamed Zhou is further enriched. The genealogy of the Prime Minister of the New Tang Dynasty, which has been preserved to this day, includes the lineage of Zhou family in Runan and its branch, Zhou family in Huanggang, Yong 'an.

Since the Song Dynasty, genealogy has been revised more and more, especially since the Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China. Due to the short compilation time, many genealogies can be preserved, especially those compiled during the Ming and Qing Dynasties and even the Republic of China. Some genealogies are even revised according to the needs of development.

In the genealogy, the most influential is the family rules and commandments made for the people. Some Zhou genealogies also indicate their own hall names. Through these hall names, we can see the unique cultural purport of the family. The hall number is a symbol used by some tribes of Zhou surname to advertise and distinguish. Most of the Tang names of Zhou surnames are named according to the place names and names closely related to the development of Zhou surnames.

A few days later, Wendi went to the army himself. Approaching the barracks, I saw that the armored soldiers were heavily guarded. When the order was sent to the gate, the campers did not budge and ordered the coachman to stop, saying, "The army listens to the order, but the son of heaven doesn't listen!" Wendi himself came to the gate of the camp, but was stopped by the sentry, so he had to hand over the son of heaven Jeff and let the sentry pay back the money. Yafu checked the papers, ordered to open the car door and put it in the driver. "Horse racing is not allowed in the camp," he said. The driver and his entourage had to do it. Entering the camp gate, Yafu came out to meet him. After Emperor Wendi expressed his condolences, the soldiers still closed the camp gate and remained neat. Wendi said happily, "This is the real general! A general like Yafu and his soldiers beat the enemy to perfection! "

move

Zhou's surname originated from Weihe Plain in Shaanxi Province. The migration and reproduction of Zhou surname from west to east is closely related to the migration of Zhou capital from Shaanxi to Henan. Since Pingdong moved to Luoyang, the Zhou family has greatly multiplied and once became a giant family. During the Warring States, Qin and Han Dynasties, the migration of nobles in various countries and the war at the end of Qin Dynasty provided conditions for the development and spread of Zhou surname. During this period, the Zhou family migrated to southern Henan and northern Jiangsu, forming two large families, namely the Zhou family and the Zhou family. During the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, due to years of war in the north, there was the first great ethnic migration, and people surnamed Zhou also moved south with the gentry in the Central Plains. Around the Sui and Tang Dynasties, the surname of Zhou developed on a large scale, and the warlords of the five dynasties fought for decades in the late Tang Dynasty, especially in the late Northern Song Dynasty and the late Southern Song Dynasty. These wars forced a large number of Zhou surnames from Henan, Shandong and other central plains to move southward, mainly concentrated in Fujian, Zhejiang and Guangdong. At the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, Zhou people followed into Zhangzhou, Fujian.

At the end of the Tang Dynasty, Zhou, Gushi County, Gwangju, Henan Province, moved to Ma House in Jian 'ou, Fujian Province. As a world residence, it was called "Ma House" in history. In the Northern Song Dynasty, Emperor Taizong moved to Chongan County, Fujian Province in the second year of Chunhua. At the end of the Northern Song Dynasty, Jin Bing captured Bianjing, and Zhou, a surname from Gushi, Henan Province, followed the Song Dynasty and moved to Ninghua, Minting (now Ninghua, Fujian). At the end of the Southern Song Dynasty and the beginning of the Yuan Dynasty, the Zhou family continued to move southward to Meixian County, Guangdong Province. When the Northern Song Dynasty perished, a large number of Zhou surnames in Shandong, Henan and other places crossed the river with Song Gaozong and settled in Zhejiang, distributed in Hangzhou, Zhuji, Shaoxing and Xiaoshan. Zhou entered Guangdong as an immigrant in the Central Plains in the late Northern Song Dynasty and the late Southern Song Dynasty. For example, Zhou's family in Xinhuiqiao Pavilion and Zhou's family in Shafufang were originally from Henan, and moved south in the early years of the Southern Song Dynasty. At the end of Yuan Dynasty and the beginning of Ming Dynasty, Ji 'an Prefecture in Jiangxi Province immigrated to Shaoyang, Hunan Province. Since Ming and Qing Dynasties, the provinces with relatively concentrated Zhou surnames are Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Guangdong, Hunan, Hubei, Jiangxi, Fujian and other provinces. The Zhou family in Taiwan Province Province is mainly concentrated in Tainan and Taibei, mostly moving from the north to Fujian and Guangdong, and then from Fujian and Guangdong to Taiwan Province Province. Zhou immigrated to the mainland in the late Qing Dynasty after the Opium War, mainly from Fujian and Guangdong in the mainland. Today, Zhou's population ranks ninth in the country.
