宗谱是家族文脉传承的核心载体。十世祖吴洽始修仙居吴氏宗谱，以聚族睦宗，振兴家族文教。自此开始，历经元明清以至现代，仙居吴氏宗谱先后续修17次。
The compilation of a genealogy was the core expression of traditional family culture and history. The tenth ancestor Wu Qia (1144- 1221) initiated the compilation of the family’s genealogy to gather together relatives, develop closer relations and revive family education. According to the records of The History of the Wu Family of Xianju, Zhejiang Province, from the Southern Song Dynasty through the Yuan, Ming, and Qing Dynasties to modern times, the genealogy of Family Wu has been revised as many as 17 times.
