The surname Yu refers to the transit warehouse for water transportation in ancient times. The official in charge of these warehouses in the court was called Dr. Yu. During the reign of Emperor Yao, some people inherited this official position, and later took the official name as their surname and were called Yu. The surname Yu is also an ancient surname, which is scattered in various provinces and cities in China with the changes of the times. There is an ancient book in which Cao Cao begged General Guan Yunchang to read the story of Yu Gong Si chasing his son and robbing him in the Spring and Autumn Annals in order to avoid being killed by Guan Yunchang. In the Han Dynasty, Yu Pi and his son taught in the court; Yu Sheng and Kun Zhong guarded Hengpu Pass in Tailing, Guangdong. In commemoration of his achievements, the name was changed to Dayuling. In the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, Yu Cheng, Yu Yi, Yu Dun, Yu Liang, Yu Yi, Yu Bing, Yu Wenjun, and Yu Daolian were from Yanling, Yingchuan, Henan Province. Yu Jianwu and Yu Xin were from Xinye, Nanyang City, Henan Province. Yu Xin said in the poem "Ai Jiangnan": "I am the leader of Yu who inherited the Zhou Dynasty. He established his clan based on his worldly merits. He served as a counselor to the Han Dynasty and became an official by discussing Taoism." This means that the ancestor of the Yu family served as Sikong and assisted Liu in the Han Dynasty. The dynasty played an important role in the founding and governance of the country and participated in high-level economic and state affairs, sitting in court and discussing Taoism. It can be seen that celebrities of the Yu family emerged one after another in ancient times and were active in the political and cultural circles for more than 3,000 years. Yu Liang combined military and political power with outstanding achievements. Yu Xin was well-read and had a great collection of essays from the Six Dynasties. Du Fu, the great poet of the Tang Dynasty, praised him as: "Yu Xin's articles have become more mature over time." The Yu family was known as a loyal and honest family at that time. Today, in Xinye, Henan, there is a shrine for the birth of the governor of Yuhui and a stele of Hu Shu to commemorate his virtues and policies. The Yu clan people have contributed to the development of society and have a glorious page in the great Chinese cultural clan that will last forever. The old man Yu Yuliang who compiled "The Chronicles of the Yu Family" wrote in the book that in the early years of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, the famous general Yu was sent as an envoy to Korea. This is the origin of the Yu family who took root in Korea. According to the census of South Korea on November 1, 2001, the Yu family ranks 97th among the 286 surnames in the country, and the population of Yu family in the country is 16,802.

Many university professors, broadcasters, newspapers, and books and periodicals have mistakenly mistaken the character "Yu" for Geng, Shou, Tang, and Liao. The pre-1972 version of the Chinese Xinhua Dictionary explains the word "Yu" as "Dayu Ridge", at the junction of Guangdong and Jiangxi Provinces. In 1977, when I was studying at Shanxi University, I wrote to the editorial department of Beijing Xinhua Dictionary, requesting that the annotation be added as "surname".

According to the Records of the Yu Family in Guangdong, the ancestor of the Yu surname in Guangdong was Yu Dongyang, who served in the Song Dynasty. He came to Guangdong from Nanjing during the Yuanyou period of the Northern Song Dynasty, served as the envoy of the Guangnan Road Manager, and brought his family to Yangcheng. The second generation Yu Guanjing was promoted to Guangnan East Road during the Zhenghe period of the Song Dynasty. Seeing the beautiful scenery of Dongguan, he moved to Dongguan Tea Garden (today's Chashan Town) and named the place Yujiafang. Around the 25th year of Hongwu in the Ming Dynasty (1392), the eighth generation Sun Yu Dexin and his father moved from Yujiafang in Tea Garden to Guyong (Chong) to avoid disaster, and then branched to Qishi Village in Benyong.
