Taishan surnames › The 翁 surname
Lineage of the 翁 families of Taishan
Translated from the Chinese, each part followed by its Chinese original. Places in Taishan are given with their pinyin; the sources’ own words (Source text) are in Chinese.
Compiled from the sources listed at the end. Every generation and every branch gives its source, and “Source text” shows the source’s own sentences; one that gives none is marked “no source”. Where a source says generations are lost or unknown, a dashed line marks the gap; where sources disagree, both are given.
According to a 2017 report on the Taishan government website, more than 600 years ago the Weng clan moved from Xinhui to Miaobian Village in Duanfen Town; apart from a few who emigrated overseas to make a living, they have never moved elsewhere since, so the Weng of Taishan all come from Miaobian in Duanfen. The clan built more than ten ancestral halls in Miaobian Village, one after another; the first was the Bochun Weng Gong Ancestral Hall, built in the Shunzhi period of the Qing.[1][edit]

The first ancestral hall of the Weng of Miaobian, Duanfen, is the Bochun Weng Gong Ancestral Hall, built in the Shunzhi period of the Qing (1644–1662 CE); its rear two sections have collapsed, and only the first remains. The Chupu Weng Gong Ancestral Hall in Yueming Village, Miaobian, is a branch hall of the Bochun Weng Gong Ancestral Hall.
端芬庙边翁氏族内的第一间祠堂是伯淳翁公祠,建于清朝顺治年间(公元1644~1662年),后两进已倒塌,只剩第一进;庙边月明村的处朴翁公祠是伯淳翁公祠的分祠。

The Weng of Miaobian, Duanfen[1][2][3][edit]
端芬庙边翁氏
Moved more than 600 years ago (as reported in 2017) from Xinhui to Miaobian Village in Duanfen Town
600多年前(2017年报道)从新会迁居端芬镇庙边村
When the founding ancestor of the Weng first came here, he stayed for a time beside an old temple, and so the land was named "Miaobian Village". For more than 600 years, apart from a few who emigrated overseas to make a living, they have never moved elsewhere; the report says the Weng of Taishan all come from Miaobian in Duanfen. The clan built more than ten ancestral halls in Miaobian Village, one after another, of which 6 survived in 2017. Those the report mentions are: the Bochun Weng Gong Ancestral Hall and, on either side of it, the Kongwen Weng Gong Ancestral Hall and the Kongxuan Weng Gong Ancestral Hall; the Chupu Weng Gong Ancestral Hall in Yueming Village, first built in the 8th year of Tongzhi of the Qing; and the branch hall Maoyi Weng Gong Ancestral Hall, built in 1919 beside Lantian Village. The Weng ancestral hall "Renzheng Family School" in Chang'an Village, Miaobian village committee, was first built more than 200 years ago (as reported in 2017). The Weng Family Mansions in Mofan Village, Miaobian, were built from 1927 to 1931 by Weng kinsmen living in the United States and Hong Kong.
翁氏始祖初到此地时,在一座古庙旁边暂住,因此将这片土地命名为“庙边村”。600多年来,除个别因谋生移民海外之外,未曾迁居他地;报道称台山的翁氏都来自端芬庙边。族人先后在庙边村建起十多座祠堂,2017年存留6座。报道提到的有:伯淳翁公祠及其左右两侧的孔文翁公祠、孔璇翁公祠;月明村的处朴翁公祠,始建于清朝同治八年;1919年建于蓝田村侧的支祠茂裔翁公祠。庙边村委会长安村的翁氏祠堂“仞征家塾”始建于200多年前(2017年报道)。庙边模范村的翁家楼,由旅美国、香港的翁氏乡亲建于1927年至1931年。

600多年前,翁氏一族从新会迁居到我市端芬镇庙边村生活。当时的庙边村另有其名,只因翁氏始祖初到此地之时,在一座古庙旁边暂住,因此将这片土地命名为“庙边村”。
[1]
600多年来,庙边翁氏一族除个别因谋生移民海外之外,未曾迁居他地。因此,但凡我市的翁氏,必定来自端芬庙边。
[1]
在伯淳翁公祠的左右两侧,庙边翁氏一族还先后建起了两座祠堂,分别是孔文翁公祠跟孔璇翁公祠。
[1]
在庙边月明村,有一间伯淳翁公祠的分祠,叫做处朴翁公祠。它处于庙边月明村,始建于清朝同治八年
[1]
翁氏家族大,几乎每一个辈分都会有自己的支祠。比如,1919年建于庙边蓝田村侧的茂裔翁公祠,就是翁氏的其中一个支祠。
[1]
庙边翁氏一族在此聚居600多年来,先后在庙边村建起了十多座祠堂,以此崇扬祖先的族训。但由于历史、人为等各种原因,目前庙边村存留的祠堂只有6座。

端芬镇翁家楼位于台山市端芬镇庙边模范村,由台山籍旅美国、香港翁氏乡亲请德国人设计图纸建造,占地面积1500平方米,建于1927年至1931年
