Tiantai Shi Ding originated from Haizhou. Several lineal cousins moved to Langya during the Hongwu period of the Ming Dynasty, among which Ding Shun (a rose) settled in Dingjiazhuang, Xiataolian, Tiantai Mountain, Rizhao, later known as Rizhao, followed by Ding He, a veteran of the Kuomintang, who won the Nobel Prize. Ding retired and settled in Langyatai, Jiaoxian County, and then moved to Dingjia Village, Baimahe, Shaanxi Province, kurama. Because there is a mountain called Tiantai in Taoluo Mountain where Ding Shun lives, Ding tui named the mountain behind the village Xiaotiantai. This school of scholars came forth in large numbers, with Ding as the representative. Since the Ming Dynasty, Ding Shun's descendants have lived under the Tiantai Mountain in Taoluo, and Ding Push's descendants have lived under the Tiantai Mountain in Xiaolangdi. Therefore, Langya Shi Ding (including Shiding in Zhucheng and Shi Ding in Rizhao) is called "Haidai Family, Tiantai Family".

Rizhao and Zhucheng Shi Ding are of the same ancestry. They are both aristocratic families and have close contacts. Therefore, after the Qing soldiers defeated Zhucheng in the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties, Zhucheng Shi Ding went to Rizhao to escape the war. This Ding's "Sailing Out of Robbery" tells a very detailed story: Ming Chongzhen was dead, and the eastern soldiers (Qing soldiers) defeated Jinan ... When they saw everyone in the north, they took refuge in the south ... From a hundred miles away, the fire was endless ... When they arrived in Rizhao, they sent their brothers to Youhai Village, and they ran north, with piles of bones and people dying.
