Dear Tan Clansman,
In 2006, the Taishan Tan ( 譚) Association initiated an update of their Tan genealogy book. The last published version was in 1994, however,the lineages were quite old as it did not include the Tan lineages for the past 6 generations – i.e., ancestral lineages for a span for the past 180 years needed to be added.
This massive update revision has now been completed and has resulted in a 2 volume 1,920 pages Taishan Tan Genealogy book set that will be published by the end of September 2009 in Taishan, China. This new Tan genealogy book set will cover most of the Tan clan lineages that originate from Tan Tianlin (譚天麟 ), the original Tan ancestor for Taishan, China. If your family originates from Taishan, China - your family branch of the Tan lineages can probably be found in 2 volumes. Also in recent times, newly revised clan genealogy books from China are now including the names of daughters.
For those of you that bought a copy of my recent book: Tan Genealogy: Heritage and Lineage, you can add the 113 generations prior to Tan Hongzhi and also include the 12 generations after Tan Hongzhi to Tan Tianlin to link together these Tan lineages for the 140 plus generations from Huangdi, the Yellow Emperor ( 2697 BC – 2597 BC ) to the present generation.
The book is in Chinese, however, your pedigree from the lineage charts contained in these 2 volumes and be identified for you by friends or relatives. I have ordered a set for each of my grandchildren – so, they and all my descendants will always have a well documented source of their Tan heritage and lineage from Taishan, China.
If you would like to order a set, you can send me an email and personal check if you live in the US – if you live outside the US, please send a money order or bank draft. I am not an agent for the Taishan Tan Association and I am only taking orders this one time – mostly, as a courtesy to all the Tan clansmen that purchased my book. Deadline for orders is September 30, 2009.
My Taishan nephew will purchase the 2 volume set and ship it to you from Taishan, China.
