Where did you get the "Lung May"? Do you have the correct character for "Lung"?
For the Record
Lung May (or Longmei) = 龍美
Dik Hoi = 荻海 (Heung 鄉)
Located in TOISHAN/TAISHAN (台山)
Surname = Yee (余)

聯美 "LuenMay" is listed in the village database for Yee (余) and is shown on the map. Therefore, it maybe is your village.

Right, Longmei was in the Sanba jurisdiction and now in the Baisha jurisdiction. Name change/merger took place over time.
Village too small to be shown on any map. It is located that corner of Taishan, close to Kaiping.

If the village you're seeking is Longmei (Dragon Beautiful), then it probably Longmei natural village, Wuwei (Five Walled Villages) greater village, of the former Sanba market subdivision of Taishan.

Look like the person who started the request is no longer interested in this topic.
It is very important for people to following up with feedback. There are people started a thread, then disappeared.
Good luck to them all.

It is a sad commentary that people who initially post a question later feel the need to remove their portion of the thread. We all learn from each other; every question has value.
The Forum participants who respond take their time and apply their expertise to help others discover their Chinese family heritage. Each researcher’s question, while unique, have significant similarities. These common threads about people’s genealogical “brick wall” contain valuable “nuggets” of information from which other people learn (sorry for the mixed metaphors). Most people merely peruse and lurk on this forum. This is what makes this Forum so powerful. Anyone in the wide world can learn from the pearls and information communicated within these post without having to sign in, join, or become members of this forum.
For those who take the time to ask questions on this forum, please consider other Chinese genealogist who want to learn about their heritage. Don’t erase your original questions or postings. Let other people reading your posts decide for themselves if your situation is apropos to their genealogical questions.
