The Fock family also called HUO in Mandarin is one of the 508 Chinese
families or clans. It has a very ancient origin and was founded more than
3000 years. According to historical details, in the year 1122 B.C, Prince Wa
Wang accedes to the throne in China after having vanquished the last king of
the Shang dynasty. Following the feudal system as was practiced at that time,
he created 75 palaces and donated same as a special privilege to his relatives
who helped him in his conquest of power.
Thus he gave to his youngest brother Sock Chu the region of Fock Shan
which means the Fock Mountain). The Fock families who settled in Mauritius
came from the districts Shun Tack and Nam Hoi of the Kwan Tong province in
the South of China.
