Hi, Can anyone help. I was told my grandfather came from Kwek Sim Heo Village, Giap Swa Koo District, Teo Yeo (Chaoyang) District, Chaozhou, Shantou, Guangdong Province. I need to know the pinyin names for the village and district.

wong, Without the Chinese characters and not familiar with the dialect, presumably Chaozhou, I'll take a wild guess Giap Swa Koo = 峡山区 = 峡山镇 Kwek Sim Heo = 溪心乡
汕头市 潮南区 峡山镇 溪心村委会 Shantou City, Chaonan District, Xiashan Zhen (Township), Xixin Administrative Village (Village Committee)
In Google Maps. search for these coordinates "23.2162, 116.3985"

The address written horizontally across the top is what I wrote above.
The other address I have been able to figure out is the lower right. written vertically,
汕头市 潮南区 陈店镇 山柄村 北门外 Shantou City, Chaonan District, Chendian Township, Shanbing Villageļ¼ outside of Northgate, then a business or a person's name Yan 颜.
Shanbing village is a Yan 颜 surname village. Shanbing 山柄 aka 汕柄 has the coordinates "23.2462, 116.2999".
The remaining 2 addresses I haven't figured out yet, some characters may not be written correctly.
