Historical Documents held at Deokdong Yeoju Yi Clan Lineage, Pohang

This collection comprises eighteenth-century documents associated with Sedeoksa, the lineage shrine of the Yeoju Yi clan who have lived for generations at Deokdong, together with documents long held privately by the Yeoju Yi family. They include a gowangnok (a record of past office-holders), jeondap-an (land registers), wanmun (official certificates issued by the government) and ip-an (certified land deeds), as well as myeongmun (private deeds), wanmun and ip-an held by the family itself. The Yeoju Yi clan of Deokdong has lived here for more than 300 years, since Yi Gang, the fourth-generation descendant of Nongjae Yi Eon-hwal — the younger brother of Hoejae Yi Eon-jeok — relocated from Yangjwa-dong, Gyeongju, to Deokdong. These documents are currently kept at the Deokdong Folk Museum.
