How is the right way to write a family tree?

1. Genealogical preface: For a slightly large-scale genealogy, there must be a preface ranging from one to dozens of prefaces, which is one of the indispensable contents of each genealogy. The genealogical order includes the new order, the old order, the guest order of people outside the clan, the proverbs, the catalogue and the engraved names of people, and other accounts of the clan.

2. Examples: Mainly to explain the principles and styles of genealogy. Generally speaking, some genealogies are renewed with a number of rules that suit the trends and needs of the society as the principles to be followed in the revision of the genealogy.

Each set of "Family Tree" recognizes the origin of its own surname, so that it can be passed on from generation to generation, and can also pass on the roots of the family for thousands of years. Since the Ming and Qing dynasties, most of the genealogies have a chapter that records the origin of the surname, or the origin of the surname, or the origin of the clan. It is mainly used to describe the original surname**, the historical origin of the clan, the ancestor, the lineage, the migration, the relationship between the tribes and even the origin of the surname.

Generally speaking, the hall name is mostly taken from the name of the county, which is the establishment of the administrative region in the Qin and Han dynasties, and the name of the county name is taken from the name of the county, or the name of the princes, the name of the local government, the state, and the county.

Such as Ren's "Five Knowledge" (Knowing Grace, Knowing, Knowing Life, Contentment, and Luck).

Family motto and family rules: In many genealogies, many famous sayings and aphorisms have been recorded for governing the family and teaching children, which have been passed down to later generations, such as the familiar Yan family motto and Zhu Zi's motto of governing the family. Family rules are clan rules jointly formulated by clan members to restrain and educate the clan, and are an important part of the family tree.

There are many different names, such as family rules, family precepts, family laws, family rituals, family rules, clan covenants, ancestral rules, precepts, etc.
