1 originated from ancient storage countries, and China people took place names as their surnames. According to legend, there was a storage country in ancient times, and the descendants of the warehouse took the country name "storage" as their surname, which was passed down from generation to generation.

2, the source is based on the name of the ancestor (Wang Fu). According to the book Custom Yi Tong, during the Spring and Autumn Period, there was a doctor word in Qi State, which once intersected with Mencius. Zi Chu's descendants are abundant, and his grandson takes the word "Chu" as his surname, which proves that the earliest origin of the surname is in Qi and Lu areas, and it is the source of today's surname. Also, during the Spring and Autumn Period, Chu Jun was born in Qi, and his descendants took Chu as their surname.

Ancestor: Chu Taibo. According to the research of surname scholars, China's Chu family is a descendant of Chu Zi Jing written by Qi and Meng. The origin of this period is also recorded in Textual Research on Surnames and Tracing the Origin of Thousand Surnames. Chu family has a long history and was famous as early as the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. It has a history of more than 3000 years. After the Jin Dynasty, it was said to be popular all over the south of the Yangtze River, especially in southern Jiangsu. Chu family is a famous local family. Noble families lived in Hedong County (now Xiaxian North, Shanxi Province). Later generations of Chu family revered Chu Shu as the ancestor of Chu surname.

Second, migration distribution.

In Chinese mainland and Taiwan Province Province, Zhu is not among the top 100. According to the Records of Chu's Family in Hailing, the examination of Chu's family began in the Zhou Dynasty and was made in Qi Dynasty, which is well known in history books. It can be seen that Chu's surname originated in the Zhou Dynasty. The first Chu family recorded in Taizhou Chu Family Tree was Wenxigong in Tang Dynasty, who lived in Piling (now Changzhou) 1200 years. At the end of Yuan Dynasty, the Chu family moved from Yixing to Taizhou. According to genealogy records, in the turmoil at the end of the Yuan Dynasty, the seventh Ren Ning Gong of the Chu family 19 abdicated and negotiated with his younger brother Ning Bagong to move to Hailing. When they came to Hailing, they found that this place was rich in fish and salt, so they decided to build a house in Qintong Town, a water town, and later became Qintong Shuiyun Building. Qintong now has Chujiaduo, Chujiagou and other places, where more than 200 descendants of the Chu family live. Later, Nimba moved to Shanghai by revolution; Ning Qigong's second son, Quan, moved from Qintong to Taizhou. Another branch moved to Rugao Kanshang (including Hai 'an and Nantong). Generations, today, there are more than 230 descendants of Chu living in Taizhou. 1945, the 37th son of Chu family, Erdong and Erxun, moved to Taiwan Province Province to build a railway. From 65438 to 0988, Erdong moved to the United States from Taiwan Province Province and lived in Los Angeles, California, because his children all worked in the United States. This is the first generation of Zhu family who immigrated to America. From the genealogy, we can see the footprints of Chu ancestors' migration, and also let us strongly feel the surging blood of a constantly multiplying family. The origin of Chu family in Ninghai, the author recently took the genealogy of Chu family ancestral hall in Ninghai to the Shanghai Library to check with the main genealogy of Chu family in Yixing, Jiangsu Province, and confirmed that Chu family in Ninghai was a famous poet in the Tang Dynasty and a descendant of Chu Guangxi, the governor. According to Yixing's "Chu's Fengyi Branch Tree", Chu Guangxi is known as "the ancestor of Chu in the south of the Yangtze River". When the descendants propagated in Yanling (Danyang) to the Song Dynasty 12 generation, all the descendants of 1 1 moved to Yixing, Changzhou, Yangzhou, Chizhou, Taizhou, Yunnan and Guizhou except 1. In particular, the Chu family in Yixing is the most developed, with 30 scholars. The Chu family in Ninghai is based on Chu Yinzhi, a native of Danyang, Taizhou. It has been more than 900 years since the beginning of Chu Yin in Ninghai, with nearly 10,000 people. Celebrities have been scholars of Chu State Xiu in the second year of Duanping in the Fifth Song Dynasty (1235), and once served as the magistrate of Jiangyin, and wrote "Ninghai County Fu"; In the 30th century, Chu Jianguo founded the Chinese Coin Museum in Hangzhou, and was a famous coin collector. Chu surname is one of the oldest clans in Fuyang. During the Hongzhi period of the Ming Dynasty, a scholar lived in Chushan, Henan Province, where tea was cooked. Chu people mainly live in Shilijing in the east of the city, west of the West Lake in the west and east of Ji Cheng. There are not many Chu surnames with fame and rank. It's just that there was a juren Chu Dianqing in Daoguang period, so his political status was slightly lower than the other seven surnames. Chuxing Ancestral Hall is located at the northern end of Wende Street (now the fourth grain station). Many people ignore the fact that Chu actually lived in Yingzhou for 700 years when calculating the eight famous people in Fuyang. The school of Ci (the school that carries on the family line) has not been chaotic so far, and it still retains the legacy of the family. (omitted)
