Life & career

Jeon Yeong-ryeong (全永齡) is the founder of the Gyeongsan (Oksan) Jeon clan. He is said to have distinguished himself as Sinhowi Daejanggun under King Sinjong of Goryeo and been enfeoffed as Lord of Oksan (玉山君), and is introduced as a 27th-generation descendant of the original ancestor Jeon Seop. A Segye Ilbo surname series instead calls him a 12th-generation descendant of Jeon I-gap, so the generation counts differ by source.

Oksan was a Goryeo-era alternative name of Gyeongsan, and the Oksan Jeon is described as having branched from the Jeongseon Jeon. His son Jeon Gong-ryang, who served as Siyeosa, is recorded.

Founder and Seat

Jeon Yeong-ryeong is said to have distinguished himself as Sinhowi Daejanggun under King Sinjong of Goryeo and been enfeoffed as Lord of Oksan, so his descendants took Oksan (Gyeongsan) as their seat. Wikipedia lists his dates as 1197-1204, which looks like the reign of Sinjong, so his actual dates could not be confirmed.

Relation to the Jeongseon Jeon

The Oksan Jeon is described as a seat that split from the Jeongseon Jeon, its descendants taking Oksan as their ancestral seat. See the Gyeongsan Jeon page for details.

Grave

His tomb, originally at Sinseok-ri, Namcheon-myeon, Gyeongsan, was lost; an altar and stele were later erected and moved to Daemyeong-ri, Namcheon-myeon (the Jeon Yeong-ryeong Danbi).

Descendants

His son Jeon Gong-ryang and grandson Jeon Yun-jae are recorded; his 6th-generation descendant Jeon Baek-yeong is well known.
