Trying to find jiapu for Tong family
I am helping a friend with his Chinese Tong family from Zhongshan, Guangdong, China. Tried Chinese Collection of Genealogies, 1239-2014.
We found two Tong families. His families immigrated to Hawaii in the late 1800s. Trying to find the family book, Jiapu, for his family. How do I determine which Tong is his family when they are from the same village?

I have recently been working on genealogy for the clans in the Zhuhai area (used to be the Zhongshan County) and received some records for the Zhongshan Tong/Tang 唐 clan. If your friend is looking for the Tong/Tang 唐 family from Tang Jia Villiage/ Tong Kah Village唐家村, then I might be able to check my records for you. About the question you have --How do I determine which Tong is his family when they are from the same village?---If both families with the same surnames and from the same village, they are very likely to be related to each other.
