Of ancestors and foreign
devils...
John and Shao Ping
visited the ancestral temple of the Yeh family in Guan Ying,
Tao Yuan. The temple is located in the countryside alongside
rice paddies and farms. The ancestors' approval for the
marriage of John and Shao Ping had to be sought.
The temple holds
the remains of the Yeh family ancestors. The names of
members of the Yeh family who are deceased are listed here.
There are also plaques which list appropriate names for
children born into the family. There is an inner courtyard
and an inner shrine with an altar. The Yeh family has been
living in Taiwan for over 250 years.
