Family Picture
1. Translation of Chinese names to the roman alphabet (Romanization) sometimes has different results depending which which dictionary you use. Note: Although not early settlers this family is related to one the early California families through marriage. However, there were 25-30,000 Chinese who came to California to work on the Transcontinental Railroad between 1865 and 1870. See the Chinese Immigrant Page. Hui was a farmer in Wan-Tan, Taiwan, who moved Kaohsiung in 1940/41 and opened a bicycle shop. As a business leader and potential threat to Chiang's tenuous rule, he was jailed briefly after the Nationalists, led by Chiang Kai-Shek, took over the government in 1949.
