What's Wu's surname now?
Wu didn't rank in the top 100 among the hundred surnames, but it ranked 85th among the hundred surnames in Taiwan Province. The Wu family, which began in ancient times, has thrived mainly in Pingyang for thousands of years. In other words, Pingyang in ancient times was the original source of the witch clan. Historically, there are many places in the ancient city of Pingyang. Pingyang, the birthplace of Wu, refers to Zou County in Shandong Province. In the Spring and Autumn Period, it was the land of Qi State and later became the city of Lu State. During the Qin Dynasty, it was named Zou County. Wu lived here and was attacked from generation to generation. It makes sense that the descendants of Wu who later moved to the whole country took Shandong as their ancestral land. From Shandong across the vast Yangtze River to Jiangsu, the ancestors of the Wu family arrived in Fujian and Guangdong in the south very early, so the Wu family in Fujian and Guangdong also originated in Zou County, Shandong Province. The ancestors of Wu moved to Jiangsu in the early Ming Dynasty, and then moved south from Jiangsu to Fujian and Guangdong, bringing Wu to the southeast coast. In this case, we can find a lot of concrete evidence in the history of Ming Dynasty, the most notable of which can be said to be the deeds of two famous people, Wu Zixiu and Wu Zixiao. In the Qing Dynasty, another surnamed Wu moved from Guangdong to Taiwan Province and started his career in Taiwan Province Province, where he flourished. Wu surname in Taiwan Province Province, after Ma surname and before wang xing, is the 73rd most popular surname in Taiwan Province Province. Wu's ancestral home in Taiwan Province Province was in Guangdong, from which he moved to Taiwan Province in the early Qing Dynasty. Strictly speaking, they are descendants of Wu Peng, an ancient imperial doctor.
