Fu / Fu
The surname's traditions include descendants of Fuyou, a minister of Gonggong; descendants of Laizhu of the Shang dynasty; descendants of Furuo, a water official of the ancient Lai state; and descendants of the Fu lineage who changed their surname to Fu to evade danger.
The Guwen Suoyu records that the surname came from Gonggong and that Gonggong had a minister named Fuyou. The Lushi records Furuo's flight to Tang and the later formation of the Fulai surname, abbreviated to Fu.
One Fu branch in Nanjing, Jiangsu, came from Xuying Town in Huojia County, Henan; its ancestor Fuxiu migrated from Changsha, Hunan. Fu clans are distributed in Xi'an, Huojia, Xiuwu, Changsha, Ningxia, Hami, Beijing, Shanghai, Hong Kong, and Taiwan, among other places.
