Sorry, the name in Pinyin did not come out right in the posting even though it was right when I typed it. I try again, it should read "shi tou" to mean stone head.

Hi Kan,
I am trying to locate my ancestor's village. It is in Xinhui and the village is call liang kai ( meaning cool creek).
I will be going there once it is identified. My email is vloh@bigpond.net.au in Sydney Australia.

Amazing, I'm also in Sydney.
Can't seem to find the place. Any indication which part of Xinhui? How's you Chinese? and how's your eye sight? I can email you my map.

Vincent, do you mean Leung Kai (Liangxi)? Meaning 'good stream"? This village is north of Wui Sing(Huicheng) very close to a town called Tangxia.

Hello All,
Hope I can still connect with some people on this link as it has been quite a few years since this enquiry started. My paternal grandfather is also from Xinhui, MuKang and he migrated to Singapore (date unknown). For my famiy, Kan is actually Cantonese pronounciation. In Mandarin romanization, it is Jian3. The meaning if Jian is Simple/Easy.
