Can anyone help me find the current names of Saan Gee and Ma Loong Tong Villages? They should be in Chungshan, Area 5. Thanks.

whit28,
Do you have the Chinese characters for these village names ?
By Area 5 - do you mean ? 谷都區 / Kuk To

I am sorry I don't. I am using the Villages Database but no luck. They must be in this area I think. 中山 / Chungshan 5

Hi whit28:
May I ask what clan you are searching for and why you think these villages are in Chungshan? There is a Ma Loong Tong Village 馬龍塘村 in Yanping 恩平 that is the ancestral place of many overseas Chinese. The main surname there is Fung 馮. More information would be helpful.

Thanks Gregg. Well that's thrown a spanner in the works! I have already identified DNA matches to Chock (Zhou) and Sai (Sher) in Guantangcun and Chang and Wong in Yongmocun. These are only about 9km apart. We know my great grandfather came from the Shiqi area but we have no idea where or his correct Chinese name. Relatives are still working on the the characters he gave as signatures. I'll follow up what you have given me. Thanks again.

Hi whit28, Could you provide the surname associated with each of the villages? There is a Lung Tong Chai (Little Lung Tong) in Area 5 with the surnames 何,區,劉,謝 Ho, Au, Lau, Tse - do these surnames resonate with your research? villagedb.friendsofroots.org/display.cgi/village/6393Jason |

𣲭 is the sound equivalent of 濠.
According to your posting, the location would be:
大同鄉, 濠沖村 (濠涌村),大宗祠巷後.
Hope the information helps!

Hello I am looking for the location of 東茶 village in Chungshan

Hi:
It looks like it is in Chungshan/Zhongshan City, Nahm Long/Nanlang Town: 中山市南朗鎮東茶村. There is an old Chun/Chen 陳 ancestral temple there. Perhaps Henry or another member can give you the location on a Google map.
