Tan Seng Bie coat of arms and start of familyline

[gracelim]

Good day,

I am looking for the coat of arms, the first person of the familyline and other interesting information of Tan Seng Bie. He is my cousin's grandpa. He is a Chinese from Indonesia. I have a picture of a part of the family tree.

Thanks for your help.

gracelim,

"Tan" Chinese surname is both a Pinyin romanization representing the surname 譚 or the Min Nan romanization representing the surname 陳.

If you tell me which one, I can provide you with the coat of arms.

Hi Henry,

unfortunately I don't know that. Maybe you can give me both coat of arms?

Thanks,

Grace,


陳



譚


The very first item in your Chinese genealogy research is to determine is the Chinese surname - you must do this before you can do anything else.

hi,

I received the Chinese characters of Tan Seng Bie (陈成美)

Can you tell me which one is the right coat of arms? And does someone have a pedigree or how the familyline started? Thanks.
