The cross-strait family search service carried out by toutiao is committed to helping people on both sides of the taiwan strait realize their wishes for family search and reunion.
Recently, Mr. Zhu Jiaping from Taiwan contacted the headline search and asked for help from the cross-strait family search project to find relatives in Guangxi for the late uncle Pang Tuo.
Mr. Pang Tuo's information is now sorted out as follows, and I hope that you will help forward it and help reunite relatives on both sides of the strait through the relay of love.
Name: Pang Tuo
Date of birth: April 8, 1920
Died: December 18, 1977
Ancestral hometown: Bonan Road, Fucheng County, Fangcheng County, Guangdong Province (present-day FangchengGang, Guangxi)
Hometown relative information: wife Tan Wenqin, daughter Pang Chunyu, Pang Chunqi
Taiwan family information: nephew Zhu Mingli, grandson Zhu Jiaping
Here are the stories of the search for relatives:
Pang Tuo, who originally served in government departments when he was on the mainland, moved his unit to Taiwan with the army around 1949. The order was issued so quickly that he could not even wait for the birth of the third child in the womb of his pregnant wife.
When Pang Tuo first arrived in Taiwan, he had no relatives in his eyes, and his thoughts for his wife and daughter in his hometown became stronger and stronger day by day. Soon, a very coincidental thing happened - Pang Tuo, who originally thought that he would die alone in a foreign country, met Zhu Mingli, a nephew who was arrested by the troops at the Taichung Railway Station!
At first, Pang Tuo only felt that Zhu Mingli's Cantonese was very kind and familiar, and after further identification and conversation, he found that the other party was his own nephew.
As "the only mainland relative in Taiwan," the two also take care of each other in their lives, and both look forward to one day being able to return to their hometown in Guangxi together.
Unfortunately, on December 18, 1977, Pang Tuo underwent surgery in the hospital due to illness and eventually died. Before his death, Pang Tuo was worried that something unexpected would happen to him, so he wrote the information of his wife and children on the mainland to his nephew and asked him to take himself "home".
In 1987, cross-strait exchanges resumed and veterans who went to Taiwan were approved to return to the mainland to visit their relatives. Zhu Mingli successfully found his family's relatives, and at the same time returned to his hometown many times to inquire about the whereabouts of his uncle's daughter. After Zhu Mingli's death, his son Zhu Jiaping took over his father's baton and continued to search for relatives for his uncle Pang Tuo.
"I have been to FangchengGang and asked the local public security police to help me inquire, but I have not found my uncle's daughter, not even a person who knows him." Zhu Jiaping said, "You (toutiao seekers) are really my last hope." ”
