Xu's genealogy
The real Xu family tree appeared after Wei and Jin Dynasties. The genealogy of Xu surname was written by Jia Bizhi in the Eastern Jin Dynasty and compiled by officials in the Southern Dynasties, such as Hundred Genealogies, Eighteen Genealogies and Newly Collected Genealogy. In the Tang Dynasty, Emperor Taizong ordered Gao Shilian to compile Genealogy, and the Xu family was classified as the best. In the Southern Song Dynasty, Chen said in Xu's Genealogy: "Emperor Taizong passed down from generation to generation, played the genealogy of the world, retired from the new door to the old one, and was poor on the left. His surname was 193+089 1, and Xu was also the first." Since then, a series of official genealogies about Xu, such as Eight Years of Zhenguan, Records of Surnames, Records of Surnames, Genealogy of Wang Family in Xinji Tianxia, Compilation of Yuanhe Surnames, etc., have preserved some genealogical data of Xu in the Tang Dynasty. In Wei, Jin, Sui and Tang Dynasties, apart from official genealogy, private genealogy was also very popular. During this period, people surnamed Xu also compiled many genealogies privately, and the genealogy of the giant officials of the State Genealogy Bureau was compiled from these vast private genealogies. After the elimination of the peasant uprising at the end of the Tang Dynasty and the scuffle of feudal separatist forces, most of the genealogy before the Tang Dynasty was lost, and genealogy, as a science, was rarely circulated, which is called "the best genealogy" in history books.
The compilation principles and requirements of the Xu genealogy can also be seen from the following two genealogies. These two genealogies are: The Genealogy of the Xu Family in the South of Dongting, which was revised in the forty years of Qianlong, and the Genealogy of the Xu Family, which was revised in the nineteenth year of Guangxu. The two genealogies are not a family, not in the same area, with a difference of more than 200 years. Therefore, there are many inconsistencies in content, scope and emphasis. Among them, Xu's genealogy is more detailed. In addition to ordinary examples in a general sense, there are also "genealogical rules" that explain the contents of ordinary examples in detail, which makes people clear at a glance.
After the genealogy is completed, the printed number will be fixed, and the number will be distributed to the relevant personnel in the family for safekeeping and collection, and detailed records will be made. Trustees still have to follow certain rules. For example, the Xu family tree in Cinan has such a regulation: "Those who collect the family tree on New Year's Day every year will bring it to the ancestral hall, and after reading it in public, they will be given two steamed buns. Second, in spring and autumn every year, in order to avoid the harm of rats and mice, the spectrum will be turned upside down and sunned. The genealogy of each room is divided into two parts. If you hide it, it will be considered unfilial. The patriarch is responsible for the genealogy for people's review. However, we must light candles, burn incense and wash our hands during the inspection in order to read in the ancestral temple and be sincere. Cherish the feelings, from the paper. In the genealogy of other clans, there are similar provisions prohibiting illegal lending and selling. If there is a violation, the punishment is expulsion from the clan.
Xu's family is tolerant and compassionate. Reflected in the genealogy, some contents that existed objectively but were not allowed by other surnames, such as adopted son, monk, wife and father, can be included in some genealogies of Xu.
In the provisions of the Xu family tree, that is, if the clan becomes a monk, it can be indicated that the temple is a monk. Only the author has seen this kind of monk genealogy, and only the Xu family has it. Others, such as Genealogy of Xu Family in Cinan and Genealogy of Xu Family in Yuehu, are included directly or specially. The Xu family tree of Xinhe has not only adopted sons, but also the names of his wife and father. The reason is: "If you marry a wife, you must include the names of your wife and father: because a woman is not famous, you should know her life in detail." At the end of the five genealogies of the Xu family in Houchun, there are also two parts, the Chronicle of Birth and Death and the Chronicle of Birth and Death, to record the people born or died in the family at any time, which is rare in other genealogies.
