1. Origin of the surname
The surname Fēng has two origins:
1. It comes from the surname Jiang, who is a descendant of Emperor Yan and named after the place. . According to records in "Xingyuan", Mingju, a descendant of Emperor Yan, was once the disciple of Huangdi. During the Xia Dynasty, the descendants of Feng Ju were in Fengfu (now Fengfu Pavilion in the west of Fengqiu County, Henan Province), which was a vassal state. Later generations once called him Fengfu, which was actually the name of the person after the place. In the Zhou Dynasty, the country of Fengfu perished, and its people were divided into two surnames, one was Fengfu's surname; the other was Feng's surname, which was called Feng's family and was passed down from generation to generation.
2. It comes from changing the surname from a compound surname. According to the records of "Book of Wei·Guan Shi Zhi", during the Northern Wei Dynasty, some Xianbei people changed their surname from Ben to Feng, and their descendants were also called Feng. The famous family lived in Bohai County, which is now Cangxian County, Hebei Province.
The ancestor who got the surname: Fengfu. The surname Feng originates from the surname Jiang, which is a surname based on the place name. According to the records in "Xingyuan", during the Xia Dynasty, Fengfu was listed as a prince, and his fiefdom was located in Fengfu Pavilion, west of Fengqiu County, Henan Province. His descendants took the land as their surname and were called Fengshi. Therefore, the descendants of the Feng family respected Feng's father as the ancestor who got the surname.
2. Migration Distribution
Feng surnames are not among the top 100 surnames in both mainland China and Taiwan. The surname Feng comes from the surname Jiang. In ancient times, Emperor Yan had a son named Shennong. Shennong had a son named "Ju" who was the teacher of Huangdi. Later, during the Xia Dynasty, in order to show respect for Ju, his descendants were enfeoffed to Fengfu (now Fengfu Pavilion, Xifeng, Fengqiu County, Henan Province), and a feudal kingdom was established. The descendants of the feudal king's family took the name of the country as their surname. Called Fengshi. Emperor Yan and Emperor Huang are the ancient ancestors of the descendants of Yan and Huang, and are famous leaders of two different clans. The Yan Emperor's clan worshiped the Ox Totem and the Phoenix Totem, and the Yellow Emperor's clan worshiped the Dragon Totem. Therefore, the surname is the descendant of Emperor Yan and the descendant of Feng. The Feng family is widely distributed in Neixiang and Xixia counties in Henan Province. The founder, Feng Zhao, was originally from Qufu, Shandong. Settled in Ying (also called Zhuanwan Road). By the late Ming Dynasty, there were more than 300 households in the Eight Dynasties. At the end of the Ming Dynasty, Zhang Xianzhong and Li Zicheng entered Henan from Shaanxi. They first entered Neixiang (Xixia was part of Neixiang at that time), robbed and killed, and the Feng clan suffered heavy casualties. It is said that until the Kangxi period of the Qing Dynasty, there were only 19 families... ( (Yu Luo)
