Need help locating these places in Guangdong Province

[maria1441]

Hello,
My name is Maria. I need help locating some places in Guangdong Province please. I am looking through documents dating from 1930. For the issuing of identification of some Chinese citizens in the Civil Registration of Ecuador in that time period , they have listed the following  places as their city of origin in Guangdong province :
-Way Yong
-Jon Chung
-won hoy
-Lampin
-Lampu
-Honsan

However, I have been unable to locate these places, or places with a similar pronunciation  in a map.

Thank you!!!!

It would be helpful to include the full name of individuals with the village of origin.
The reason: knowing the last name will help to identify the village of origin.

Here is my best guess on the locations you listed: 

-Way Yong
     惠陽縣
-Jon Chung
    張沖(新寧縣(台山)荻海,白沙鎮,余姓; plus multiply locations in other counties)  
-won hoy
       廣海鎮  (新寧縣(台山)廣海鎮)
-Lampin
        南邊?  (新會縣,雙水鎮,新會縣,大澤鎮; 新寧縣(台山)斗山鎮;開平縣)
-Lampu
         南泮?  (multiple locations, including 新會縣;新寧縣(台山)三合鎮;新寧縣(台山)沖蔞鎮)
-Honsan        香山縣 (now 中山縣)

Hope it helps!

Hi:

Those are good guesses, cdnheadtaxdata. But I think, Maria1441, that your task is very challenging, as there are many places in Guangdong Province that could be the ones to which those people were referring years ago. For example, there is actually a village called, in Cantonese, Wun Hoi 雲開村, but it is located in a part of Guangdong (southwest) from which few Chinese immigrated to the U.S. It would be helpful to know something about the immigration of Chinese to Ecuador in the 1930s and especially their counties of origin in Guangdong. But this is really a guessing game without more information.
