I am trying to find other Wong's from Deung Hong Village, Sunning Dist, China. Wong Yuen born about 1865 (or Wong Gun as he first spelled it upon his arrival to Oregon in 1886) He went back to China and married a Leong in 1883 in Deung Hong Village, his children were born there but one of his sons came to America in 1919. Yuen's father was Wong Tung Ai - Married Name Gwing Ju or Wing Jew Wong who died a long time before 1919 and is burried at a cemetery called Ngow Shan burying ground back of the Deung Hong village and the Wong Family Ancestral Tablets were at Oh Ten Doo in the 1920's. Gwing Ju's wife was Jeng Shee. His father was Wong Shen Loy and His father was Wong Doong Chong.
Their Ancestral hall said to be at Ngit Chong Do or Oh (or Haw) Tin Do at a place called Gow Wee Hong about a half mile from Deung Hong Village. But the Wong Family Tablets were kept by the family of Wong Yuen's brother Wong Hem Lock.
Do any of these name correspond with any other Wong's on the forum? Anybody have ancestors from Deung Hong?
Does anybody know what Deung Hong is called now?
