Hi, I am the 2nd generation of my family here in Singapore. My grandfather arrived in Singapore, from Nanhai Guangdong during the early 1900s. I am keen to track down my distant relatives who may or may not be in Guangdong. How should I go about doing it? Anyone out there who can share some comments?

You need to spend some time visiting old relatives and inquire from them, the name of your ancestral village in Nanhai, Guangdong.

Some of them may still have contact with relatives in China.

Hi,
My grandmother's family is also from Nanhai. Is your family related to the inventor of the U-I Oil?
