First, there are many opinions about who is the ancestor.
Regarding the ancestors of the Yang surname, comprehensive historical materials and genealogical records include Shang Father, Yang Zhu (zhu), King Jing of Zhou, Yang Gan, great-grandson of King Xuan of Zhou, Bo Qiao, and Yang Xuan (xi).
1 Shang Father and Yang Gan lineage historical records are not recorded, Shi Zai Shang Father's kingdom was destroyed by the Duke wu of Jin, Yang Gan's situation has only one name, Yang Zhu's history and zhi are not recorded, and the historical records of King Jing of Zhou as the ancestor of Yang surname are also not recorded. King Xuan of Zhou's great-grandson Feng Yang was inconsistent, and there was no lineage of history, history, and genealogy. The lineage of Yang Zhu and the monk's father is contained in the genealogy of the Duke of Yunxiu in Meizhou; the ancestor of king Jing of Zhou is contained in the yanghong branch of Tianjin Wujin, and these two lineages are records of individual family trees, not the common records of the yang family tree and historical materials in the world.
Therefore, the lineages of Shang Father, Yang Zhu, King Jing of Zhou, Yang Gan, and King Xuan's great-grandsons are all questionable.
2 Historical records record that after the Jin dynasty destroyed Yang during the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, the fiefdom of Boqiao, the son of Duke Wu of Jin, was Yang (present-day Hongdong County, Shanxi), and Boqiao was called Yang Hou, and his descendant Boqiao was the ancestor of the Yang surname.
The surname Yang is the ancestor of the Bo Qiao Gong
Later, Duke Wu of Jin divided Yang into the title of Bo Qiao's son Tu, and Tu's descendants ate me; eating my grandson Yang's tongue, because he was a meritorious minister, the Duke of Jinping gave him Yang County as a fiefdom, and from then on he officially named it "Yang", so in ancient texts there are both "sheep tongue" and "Yang". More importantly, among the descendants after Yang Qi, there is no longer a "sheep tongue", they are all titled "Yang", with Fengyi as a surname, and his descendants take "Yang" as a surname, and the history is called Yang Zhengzong. "Jin Zhigong clan food in the tongue of the sheep" is the evidence, Bo Qiao is the real Ancestor of the Yang surname, whether it is history, Zhi, genealogy are recorded, in addition to Yang Qi, other theories are recognized by some individual families, History, Zhi has no lineage, or even its name, can not be called the common ancestor of the Yang surname in the world. In a word, the Bo Qiao genealogy is the general genealogy, and the other genealogies are all branch genealogies,
The Yang surname belongs to the multi-source surname, and there are four main origins.
1 From the Ji surname, there are two main branches:
One of them is based on the national clan. During the reign of Ji Jing, King Xuan of Zhou, The Son of King Xuan of Zhou, Shang Father, was enfeoffed with a man named "Yang" (楊) (in present-day southeastern Hongdong County, Shanxi) and established the State of Yang. During the Spring and Autumn Period, the State of Yang was destroyed by the State of Jin, and the descendants were named Yang from then on in order to commemorate the homeland.
The other branch is the Yi clan. After the Jin dynasty destroyed Yang, the fiefdom of Boqiao, the son of Duke Wu of Jin, became Yang;
The grandson of Duke Wu of Jin, Tu, the descendants of Tu ate me, ate my grandson, took Fengyi as his surname, and his descendants took "Yang" as their surname, and the history called Yang Zhengzong.
