China family home alters

I have photo's of my inlaws family alter from their house in China, with words dedicated to the ancestors.  A very distant cousin's family home in China had alot of ancestors names written on his family's alter.

Which was more common?

My distant cousin and I have both had the alter photos translated. I just was wondering was it common to have ancestors names on it or not.

Yes it is a common practice. Usually, the purpose to have an alter of ancestors is for worshiping.
