Prioritize verifying Chinese names, dialect names, English names, hall names, generation names, ancestral counties and towns, the first migration ancestor, cemetery locations, clan association records, school commemorative publications, Chinese-language newspaper obituaries, and family oral accounts. When different sources conflict, keep them side by side first.
