(1) The ancestors of the Ming Dynasty are recorded in the rhymes of surnames in the Qing Dynasty, and they are one of the four members of the Suiren family. (2) In other books, according to the records, the ancestors of Ming Dynasty were people after Prime Ministers Priscilla and Meng. Due to the dating of China's history, there is no historical data to study in detail. (Sima Qian wrote Historical Records and wrote Meng Ming as the son of Priscilla, which was not the case in the Spring and Autumn Period. (3) Northern Wei Xianbei Yidu changed its surname to Ming (no test).
The second part: Ming's county view.
① Pingyuan County: Ming lived in Wanxian County of Pingyuan County (now Lingxian County of Shandong Province and Decheng District of Dezhou City). In the Eastern Han Dynasty, Ying was the state of Hou, and Ying lived in ancient times. The Ming people in the plain were known as aristocratic families in history, and their ancestors were Baili Meng Ming. The Ming dynasty was in charge of the army in the Han dynasty, and the Qin dynasty was civil and military. The representative figures are Ming Bao, Ming Pu, Ming Pu in the Western Jin Dynasty, those in the early Eastern Jin Dynasty and the Southern and Northern Dynasties, and his descendants, Yin Monk and Shao Monk. Yan Ming, Ming Pi, Xie Ming, literary talent and martial arts are all the best at the moment. Ming's marriage and intercourse are all aristocratic families. Due to the invasion of the Northern Wei Dynasty, the Ming family was scattered in many places.
(2) Xing Wu County: Emperor Taizong ordered the compilation of 100 volumes of "Records of Emperor Taizong's Clans" to suppress the Shandong gentry, so the Ming family ranked second with Yao, Ming, Qiu, Niu, Wen, Shi and Shen among the seven surnames in the county (Huzhou); Before Yuanhe's surnames were compiled, the genealogy of wang xing in Xinjitianxia recorded that there were sixteen surnames in Huzhou County, and the Ming surname was the sixteenth. This shows that the Ming family in Xing Wu County is declining. It can also be seen that the famous families of Ming dynasty have moved away and settled elsewhere. I looked for all kinds of books, but I couldn't find out which county and township Ming lived in. I hope the wise men at home will see the news.
(3) Henan County: Since the Tang Dynasty, there have been Ming Kerang (Li Chenghou), Han Ming, Ming Fengshi, Ming Ke, Ming Chongyan, Ming Yun Teng, Zhi Ming, Ming Fan, Ming Xijin and Ming Jun (Ping Zhuhou? ) wait until you settle down obviously. According to the biography of Ming Chongyan, he was from Yanshi, Luozhou. Many Ming officials were buried in Mangshan, north of Luoyang, and their private houses were in Luoyang. BeiMang Mountain is the mausoleum of emperors in past dynasties, and Lv Buwei, the prime minister of Qin Shihuang, is also buried here. It is hard to find a daughter. There were seven or eight in the Ming Dynasty, and Henan County was naturally the county of the Ming Dynasty. Then, after Emperor Xiaowen of the Northern Wei Dynasty moved the capital to Luoyang in 494 AD, he changed Xianbei's compound surname to Han's single surname (Yidou's surname was changed to "Ming") and ordered Xianbei nobles to die in Luoyang, that is, they were buried in Luoyang, not in Pingcheng (now Datong, Shanxi); At the same time, the native place was changed to Luoyang County, Henan Province.
The third part: the distribution of Ming family.
Mingyou's descendants can no longer be examined. There are some records in the history books of the Ming family in Pingyuan County after the Ming Dynasty, but they were heard in the Jin Dynasty and the Southern and Northern Dynasties. In the past thousand years, the Ming nationality moved from Qin (Shaanxi) to Qi (Shandong), and the context, survival and distribution in the middle could not be confirmed.
According to historical records, Meng Ming took the word as his surname and eventually became a famous family in the plain. Therefore, the distribution of Ming families should take Pingyuan County as the first, Jinling (Nanjing) as the second and Xing Wu County as the third. Henan county should also be taken into account. There is also Nanyang County, Henan Province.
The fourth part: Ming people on the plain-Qi Haoren in Qing Dynasty.
Since the Han and Wei Dynasties, the Ming family has developed into a noble family in Pingyuan County. The epitaph of Ming Ya, assistant minister of the Ministry of War, records that Ming was in charge of the army in the handsome department of the Han Dynasty, and he was both civil and military in the Qin Dynasty, which was elegant and simple. Before the Western Jin Dynasty, the Ming family in Pingyuan was full of troubles, and it experienced the dynasties of Houzhao, Qianqin, Yan Qian and Southern Yan. The Ming family is indomitable and always takes development as the last word. Then Xianbei Tuoba invaded again, known as the Northern Wei Dynasty in history. When Di Chin crossed the south, many aristocratic families moved to Nanjing. The Ming family has always adhered to their homeland and resisted the invasion of the Northern Wei Dynasty, and has always been one of the leaders of the plain people. Liu Song regime in the Southern Dynasties also relied heavily on the position of Ming family in the frontier. Yin, a famous monk in Ming Dynasty, was the secretariat of Jizhou, and was stationed in Jinan. Hao, a famous monk in Ming Dynasty, was the secretariat of Qingzhou, and led the army to go out. Finally, he retreated south to Huaibei, and Ming Qingfu was appointed as the secretariat of Qingzhou in Yuzhou (Lianyungang). "Although the Ming family crossed the south late, it was famous. There were six people from Song to Liang." However, the southern regime was afraid of the leaders of the Qing Dynasty and the Qi Hao family, so there were no officials after the Ming family crossed the south in the plain area. It can be seen that part of the Ming family moved south and lived in Jiangnan; While others stayed in the plain and became prisoners of the Northern Wei Dynasty. After the withdrawal of the Liu and Song dynasties, the Ming people in the Qing and Qi dynasties were reduced to Pingqi people, and were ordered by Emperor Xianwen of the Northern Wei Dynasty to move to Pingcheng (Datong, Shanxi) and "returned to their hometowns" during the reign of Emperor Xiaowen and Taihe. Therefore, under the rule of the Northern Wei Dynasty, the Ming family also developed and expanded. Ming Pi was the prefect and hou of Suiyuan, Yangping and Hejian counties. Ming association, to the matter, the county satrap; Liang Yangping is the satrap, bright and bright, assisting the general of the country, and the satrap of Langya; Fan Ming, general Xuanwei, moved to carve the Yin satrap. Based on the above situation, the Ming nationality in the plain is divided into four parts, Shanxi, Shandong, Jiangsu and Anhui. Scattered around, Xing Wu County was finally regarded as the southern part of the county. During the Northern Dynasties, the Ming family took Luoyang as the center, and there were more than a dozen Ming officials recorded in historical books. Moreover, according to the epitaphs of many ancestors of the Ming people, the Ming family settled in Shanxi, Henan, Shandong, Shaanxi, Hebei and other places. According to the situation of the Ming family in the plain, we can infer that when Hou Yan retreated to the north and perished, the officials of the Ming family must have retreated to the Beiyan regime, that is, Beijing and Liaoning today.
The fifth part: Jinling Ming family-the hero's sky.
Since the Southern Dynasties, there have been dozens of Ming officials, including more than 20. Especially the young monks are more prominent. The emperor repeatedly asked Shaogong to become an official, but he actually avoided it. It is also famous for taking photos of private houses on the Feng Long and changing them into qixia temple. qixia temple has become a paradise after a long history of incense. Shan Bin, the second governor of Northern Yanzhou, was in charge of all military affairs, that is, the princes who were both civil and military. Because his private house was sealed because he gave the official food to the disaster relief privately, Shanbin laughed and bought a piece of land to build a thatched cottage, which even Prince Zhaoming envied. Ming Yuqing practiced martial arts day and night. He wrote in his poem, "The sword is cold, and the bow and moon are bright." He also inherited the legend of Zushan, and both of them toasted the son of the country. All-rounder Because these materials are recorded in official history, there is no private place, and the family lives in a certain town. However, according to the inference that Ming is the eldest son of Shaogong, a monk, who served as Linyi Order, it should be in Qixia District, Nanjing (the overseas Chinese in Linyi County are located in Ganjiaxiang or Ganjiabian). Later, in the Northern Song Dynasty, Ming Hao, a politician, was buried in the ancestral mountain-Jinling Longshan. Hao Ming is one of the ancestors of the Ming family in Nankang, Jiangxi today. According to Gao Gong's inscription, his ancestors Shan Bin Gong and Da Fan Shou.
Part VI: Nanyang Shi Ming-the crown of civil and military.
According to various historical records, Bailixi finally became the prime minister of Qin, and his tomb was in Qili, south of Zishan Mountain in Nanyang. According to the Epitaph of Ming Dynasty in Jiangling County, Northern Qi Plain County, the Ming Dynasty was from Nanyang, and its ancestors were Jin Situ (equivalent to the prime minister, but with high power and light power) and Wei Taiwei (the highest military attache in the country, who respected but had no right). There are still Ming people living in Nanyang today.
Part VII: Luoyang Ming family-Duke family.
Mingke was transferred to Chang 'an, and his son Ming Qing Yu was an official in Luoyang. The Emperor of the Northern Zhou Dynasty conferred the title of Li Chengbo, and the Emperor Wen added the title of Hou. Clearly praise, bring Hou to nylon; Ming Jue, Dali Shao Qing; Ming Jun, Hou Anding, and Ming Chongyan are all remonstrators. Since the Northern Zhou Dynasty, Sui Dynasty and Tang Dynasty, all the prominent figures of the Ming Dynasty have been attributed to Luoyang, with dozens of historical materials. But since the Tang Dynasty, few people have heard of it. Looking up the genealogy of Nankang, Jiangxi Province, we can see that its ancestor Zhang Ming was born at the end of the Five Dynasties and was buried in Longshan, Jinling, and his descendants were distributed in Jiangxi, Jiangsu, Hubei, Sichuan and other places. After the Five Dynasties and the Han Dynasty, I sent my ancestor Guan Gong as an assistant minister of the Ministry of Industry in the capital of song dynasty (Kaifeng, Henan). He is only twenty-four years old, so it can be inferred that his ancestors must be senior ministers in Luoyang and Kaifeng. Tired by the Han faction, they finally hid in Tongshan and Yangxin, Hubei. Descendants are distributed in Hubei, Hunan, Anhui, Zhejiang, Fujian, Sichuan, Henan and other places, and are the largest number of Ming people today. At the end of the Southern Song Dynasty, Mingsi was born in Yingze County, Henan Province, and worked as an official in Nanxiong Prefecture, Guangdong Province. Become the ancestor of Guangdong, Guangxi and Ming schools. Now there are tens of thousands of descendants, some of whom have moved to Hongkong, Taiwan Province Province, Singapore, Australia and other overseas regions.
Part VIII: The Ming family in Korea-descendants of the emperor.
Ming Yuzhen, a native of Suizhou, Hubei Province, was founded in Chongqing, and was known as Emperor Daxia in history. Son Ming Sheng inherited the throne, lost to Zhu Yuanzhang, and was sent to live in Korea. After returning to righteousness, it became the beginning of the Korean and Korean schools. Today, there are 40,000 school children in North Korea and South Korea. But also set up the Ming clan association, compiled four volumes of Ming clan genealogy, and returned to Chongqing to worship ancestors every year.
The ninth part: Hui Ming nationality-anti-Qing and regaining sight.
At the end of Ming Dynasty and the beginning of Qing Dynasty, the righteous and Hui people in Nanming refused to accept the rule of Manchu Dynasty, changed their surnames to Ming, and lived in Guizhou, Yunnan, Sichuan, Gansu and Ningxia, forming a concentrated "biography of Ming Dynasty", and even people in a township were surnamed Ming. As for Mongols (Yuan Dynasty) and Manchu (Qing Dynasty), they are both famous figures in history, but their names are Ming, but they are not Ming. Surnames can only be consulted by historians. For example, the Pearl of the Ministry of War in the Qing Dynasty was originally Nalan's, and its full name is Nalan Pearl; Another example is Ming Rui and Huangqi Manchu. No surname is Ming.
To sum up, the Ming family has been distributed all over the country since Pingyuan County. Wen has a prime minister, Wu has it, and he is called a king and a marquis. Today, Ming's children are all talented people, including scholars, professors, generals and captains. Especially in the economic construction of China, I, Shi Ming, have also done my part.
