Who can write home?

Family lineage with blood relationship as the main body is multiplied, and important figures can be listed on the genealogy. Genealogy is centered on recording paternal families and characters, and evolved from recording the lineage and deeds of ancient emperors and princes.

Genealogy is generally divided into two parts, hanging nave's spectrum curtain and only recording the dead. According to the family size, it can be divided into three years, five years and ten years. The second part is genealogy: different from genealogy, all family members, living or dead, know everything, including photos of ancestors, advanced achievements, wife's name, maiden's address, aunt's wedding place, uncle's name, nephew's name and details of living people.

Women are generally not included in the family tree. Because daughters are not among children and grandchildren, if women want to be included in the family tree, the only chance to occupy a place is to be classified as "heroic women" and "virtuous women". In modern times, the face of male superiority and female inferiority in traditional thinking has obviously changed. In many genealogies, wives no longer use "surname" but write their full names. Girls can also be included in the ranks of future generations The female surname is taken over by the genealogy of the married male surname.
