I am starting to research my family tree in China, and came across your amazing site. Does anyone know whether there is an easily accessible copy of a jiapu or zupu for the Qiu family 丘 or 邱 (Hew in Hakka, Yau in Cantonese) for the area near DaBuXiang village (Tai Pu Hong in Hakka) , Guanlan town (Gon Lan in Hakka), Bao An district, Shenzhen city, Guangong province from about 1900 backwards? 国广东省 深圳市 宝安区 观澜镇 大布巷
I have already searched in the major Libraries, without success, but do not know whether there are clan associations that might have copies of jiapus. How would I find the right association(s) either in the Shenzhen area or overseas?
I have my family tree back to about that time, when they migrated to Jamaica, but have no idea how to get further back without making a trip there to find it myself.
Has anyone been to that village, or know whether there is an active local organization there that would be able to locate it for me?
Thanks in advance for any suggestions or pointers.
