A Review of Tan Zhenchang's Family History

Family is a basic structure of society, and family is several families of the same ancestor. Family is a natural link to maintain and connect blood relationship, which is manifested in kinship, blood relationship and even the family structure of several close relatives. Family is blood, and blood is thicker than water; Home is a relative, connected by blood; Family is history, well documented, all survived in ancient times. Affection is the characteristic of China. Family history is also an integral part of China's history, just like a stream on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, which is a source of the Yangtze River.

Regarding family history, I think there are three characteristics: first, in family history, there will always be a certain person, because of his genetic genes, because of his personal IQ and EQ, because of his personal hobbies and personality, who will become an elite celebrity of the family and even the whole society, which will greatly promote the progress of the family and even the society. These elite celebrities are the crystallization of the excellent genetic genes of the Chinese nation, the display of personal hobbies and the hard work of the people. Second, the suffering of life is often a valuable personal wealth. It is hard to buy poverty with money when you are young. Suffering in life is often an important factor to promote human growth and success. Third, local historical events and local customs are closely related to family history, just as rivers are closely related to bends, rapids, rapids, pagodas and docks.

Family history is the basic research material of social history. China's TV series Da Zhai Men, elegant novels A Dream of Red Mansions and Bailuyuan all describe family history, which should be an important source of China's literary creation, just as homesickness inevitably occupies an important part of people's thoughts and feelings. Dazhaimen reflects the history of the rise and fall of Baicaotang pharmacy, a century-old shop in China, as well as the grievances and enmities of the three generations of the medical family Baifu. Both Da Zhai Men and Bai Lu Yuan reflect the prominent figures in the family, their special experiences and personal characteristics. It reflects the influence of the Qing Dynasty, War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression and the Liberation War on the lives of grassroots people. The novel characters in Da Zhai Men and Bai Lu Yuan all have actual historical prototypes, are artistic creations based on family historical facts, and have fictional elements. The family history I am writing now begins with my great-grandfather. The family history of Tan Zhenchang in Guigang is documentary, not fiction. It is historical facts, plus my in-depth analysis and comments on these historical facts.

Through his articles, a person can make his words meaningful and profound, let people know many useful, interesting and very profound problems that people don't know, and let people think and understand the deep connection of things that he can't easily understand. Then what he wrote is considered to have accumulated public morality and done good deeds. Isn't it the skills that a responsible author should have to express and reveal, such as selecting materials, narrative evaluation and preaching? If you can't express enlightenment, preach and teach people to fish, what is the significance of your writing to readers? For example, when you visit Eickel Port, if you can only write about the ships, docks and containers you see, but you have no thoughts, feelings, care or knowledge about the invisible intercity connection of Guigang Port, then you will only look at the problem superficially, unilaterally and in isolation, which is metaphysical. If you visit the workshop of robots, electric cars, electric cars and mobile phones in Guigang, you can only write the scene of the workshop in isolation, but you can't dig deep into the relationship between the vertical historical development of Guigang's industry and the horizontal industrial projects. It is superficial, isolated, static, superficial and not profound. What you see is only superficial, and what you can't see in the vertical and horizontal connection is profound. What you see in children's activities is superficial, the sound "save the children!" " "Shouts meaningful.

The family history of Tan Zhenchang in Guigang is a micro-historical fact that really happened in Guigang. It exists like the Xijiang River that flows all the year round. And this microscopic historical fact will be similar to other families, thus causing the voice of * * *. The history of multiple families can form the torrent of China history. Zhou Enlai, Zhu De, Peng, Liu Bocheng, Ye Jianying, etc. are all elite celebrities from different families. They jointly led the Chinese Red Army to a miraculous victory. There is always something worth thinking and studying about the microscopic historical facts that happened on the land of Guigang. Where does the flood go? What does the spray show? I'm trying to make you think and express.

The history of China Tan

The Tan family in China originated from Dangjia Village in the north of Longshan Town in the west of Zhangqiu City. During the ancient Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, Dangjia Village was called Tan Guo, and Tan Guoren was surnamed Tan. There is no last name for no reason. The surname rule of the Chinese nation is that children must take their father's surname. This was stipulated by China's ancient ancestors. Most people in China have followed this rule from generation to generation, and have continued this surname for thousands of years. Although he calls himself "Lu Xun", his surname must be "Zhou" rather than "Lu" in serious social form registration. People surnamed Zhou are called "Lu Xun" and those surnamed Lu are generally not called "Lu Xun". This is the characteristic of surname culture in China: two people with the same surname, strangers from afar, may have been a family and the same ancestor thousands of years ago. There is a historical relationship between the same surname and the same surname, which is a historical relationship between biology and sociology.

It is said that the Han nationality mainly lived in the north of China in ancient times, while the south of China was a barbarian land in ancient times, inhabited by indigenous minorities. Later, the northern minority Hu people invaded and fought against the Han people. The ferocity and savagery of the Hu people sometimes defeated the Han people, massacred them on a large scale, avenged themselves and mourned the comrades who died. There are many wars in North China and few wars in South China. In order to avoid chaos and save lives, all surnames of the Han nationality who migrated from North China to South China have branches. Many Han people moved from North China to South China. The most famous story in the southern Tan family genealogy is that "Tan Hongyu was honored as one of the four ancestors of Tan family who entered Guangdong in Song Dynasty". Song dynasty is far away from the present history, and distant records are easy to be lost. However, Hongyun's entry into Guangdong is recorded in historical materials, and there have also been outstanding events from Jiangxi to Guangdong, which should be a relatively certain historical fact. Hongyu's father was in the Tang Dynasty during the war. In the war, Yang Guifei, the emperor and queen, failed to save her life. Killing people in a brutal and uncivilized war is very cruel, and civilians suffer more. After the war, the winner of killing red eye is often the whole city and the whole village. Acer's father witnessed and heard the horror of the urban village massacre, and his family moved from Hunan to Jiangxi to avoid chaos and survive. Hongzhi lives in Xijun Village, Hua Qian County, Ganzhou County, Jiangxi Province. Although he just moved to Jiangxi with his father, the war of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms soon spread from Hunan to Jiangxi. Jiangxi Ganzhou has also become unsafe. In order to save his life, Tan Hongyu had to flee from Jiangxi to Lishashui Village in Nanxiong Zhuji Lane, Guangdong Province. Later, at the end of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, Song Taizu had been in power for three years. After the peace situation stabilized, in 962 AD, Hong returned to live in Jiangxi from Guangdong. In AD 12, that is, in 974, after returning to Jiangxi from Guangdong, Hong died in Xijun Village, Hua Qian County, Ganzhou County, Jiangxi Province, and was also buried in Xijun Village, Hua Qian County, Ganzhou County, Jiangxi Province.

Although Hong Ying is a civilian, his family has always had a good inheritance and elegant family style, and has been urging his children and grandchildren to study for the imperial examination, even if there is a war. Tan Hong, the macro son, and Sun Bocang benefited from good inheritance and elegant family style, and they both entered the imperial examinations in the Song Dynasty. A family can produce two Jinshi, but that is the embodiment of an ancestor, once in a hundred years, and it is a groundbreaking and glorious ancestor. In particular, Bocang, the official to the official, set up a business in Guangdong and began to settle in Guangdong. According to Tan's genealogy, the macro rank is "Gui Yin Sun Bocang". Judging from the facts, Tan Bocang is the real "ancestor of Tan's entry into Guangdong", and Tan Hongyu only fled to Guangdong temporarily. He has no real estate or house in Guangdong. He just fled to Guangdong for a few years temporarily, but he didn't really settle in Guangdong for a long time. Strictly speaking, Acer has not gained a foothold in Guangdong, and he has not lived in Guangdong for a long time. He should not be the ancestor of Tan in Guangdong. Tan Bocang is a pioneer and founder who has an official position and has the ability to start a business in Guangdong and start to settle in Guangdong for a long time. Tan Bocang understands the significance of "the first person to enter Guangdong" and "the ancestor" in later generations, and wants to leave a clear record of this event in history and pass it on to future generations. Originally, he deserved the title of "the first person to settle in Guangdong". But Tan Bocang was a Confucian, and his filial piety and humility made him famous. His first thought was to thank grandpa. He insisted on respecting his grandfather Hong Biao as "the first ancestor of Tan family in Guangdong", making his grandfather immortal and admired by future generations. He also did something difficult to do: move grandpa's bones from Jiangxi to Guangdong. In the absence of trains and cars at that time, it was very difficult to move the ancestral graves from Jiangxi to Guangdong, but with the support of Bocang's majestic ability, it was still done. He ordered the descendants with the word "Chao" to go to Ganzhou, Jiangxi Province, and moved the remains of Tan Hongling and his wife to Shaoma Mountain in Gaomingcang, Guangdong Province. He also ordered the descendants of Chao to open genealogy records for future generations. Now Hongbi's descendants are all over the world, and every year Tan's descendants come from all over the world to worship Hongbi's ancestral grave in Shaoma Mountain, Gaomingcang. Bocang's children "Chao" built the Tan ancestral hall in Guangzhou, Foshan and other places. The Tan ancestral hall in Guangzhou was bombed by Japanese planes, while the Tan ancestral hall in Foshan is still there. The word "Chao" also rebuilt the genealogy. The history of Hongkui and Bocang recorded by several generations in the dynasty should be more true.

Tan Hongzhi never wanted to be the "ancestor of Guangdong" before his death, nor did he expect to become a folk celebrity after his death. He's just a lowlife who has no power or influence, keeps a low profile and doesn't compete with the world. He fled to Guangdong just to save his life, wandering outside, having no fixed place to live, and supporting his family. He is a down-and-out migrant worker. After the peace situation stabilized slightly, he returned to Jiangxi on foot, married and had children. His home is in Jiangxi, and he has nothing in Guangdong! He died after returning to Jiangxi for more than ten years. He lives and is buried in Jiangxi, as humble as an ant. But his children and grandchildren live up to expectations. Sons Tan Hong and Sun Bocang are both scholars, and Tan Bocang is an official of the official department. He should give full play to the glory of his ancestors, commemorate his grandfather's bitter experience of being displaced in those days, comfort his grandfather's spirit in heaven, and show the heroic spirit of the Tan family today. At that time, they came to Guangdong tragically from Jiangxi, and then walked back to Jiangxi helplessly from Guangdong. Times are hard and survival is hard. It will never be forgotten. Today, Bocang is fortunate to be an official in the Imperial Examination High School. Today, he is different from before, with mixed feelings and pride. Bocang ordered his children to transport his grandfather's bones from Jiangxi to Guangdong and bury them with horses so that future generations could worship him. Hongzhi never imagined that his grandson Bocang would stubbornly promote him to the status of "the ancestor of Guangdong" and was worshipped by thousands of people after his death. Tan also donated money to set up a school in Kaiping, Guangdong. The school will be named "Hongzhi" and will be handed down to future generations. Ordinary people, even Chang Bao, are more famous than Tan Bocang, the minister of Jinshi. Tan Hongzhi was honored as the "ancestor who entered Guangdong", which further demonstrated Tan Bocang's elegance, filial piety and humility. The move of Tan Hongzhi's tomb from Jiangxi to Guangdong is a commemoration of that troubled life. This is a memorial to the anger, efforts and success of Tan Hong and Tan Bocang. Hongzhi Tomb is a history of China's world vicissitudes. Hongzhi's tomb is the vital qi for survival, turning the situation around and turning over salted fish. Hongzhi's ancient tomb is a feeling and a memorial to our ancestors.

The descendants of Tan Hongzhi who moved from Jiangxi to Guangdong after the Song Dynasty have become the most influential, important and famous Tan family in China. At present, many of the presidents and vice presidents of the world Tan clan association are descendants of the macro-rank branch.

Tan later entered Guigang, Guangxi from Guangdong. The ancestors of the Tan family in Guigang were called educated youth, who was born in the 13th year of Yongle in Ming Dynasty, namely 14 15. It has been more than 400 years since Guangdong and Guangdong and Tan entered your port. Because ancient people migrated mainly by walking, people would not easily leave their homeland and wander to other places if they were not forced by the hardships of life and living conditions. It took Tan 400 years to enter Guigang, Guangxi from Guangdong. "Hometown change for a long time" refers to the migration and settlement history of surnames. Especially in the south, many families migrated from the north to Guangdong and Fujian, and from Guangdong and Fujian to Guangxi. After the Second Opium War, the Shi Dakai family migrated from Guangdong to the mountainous area of Guigang, Guangxi. A history of immigration is a history of blood and tears.

The educated youth, the ancestor of Tan in Guigang, once served as the Sheren of Yulin House, which is equivalent to the secretary-general around the county party secretary now. After he retired from his official position, he went to reclamation in Wutai Village, Xintang, Guigang City, on the outskirts of the south bank of Xijiang River in Guigang, to cultivate future generations. At that time, there were relatively few people and many wasteland. Later, when there were more people in Guigang and fewer people, the Tan family migrated and diverted from Xintang to other places. The era of educated youth is only more than 600 years, but it has developed from educated youth to more than 80 thousand descendants today. Tan Zhenchang's family is the 18th generation grandson after knowing the Qing Palace. He was my great-grandfather. Tan Zhenchang is a native of Qing Dynasty. It's only been more than a hundred years today, so the history recorded by his people should be true.
