As you can see on my LINEAGE page, the Dong family learned from both the Yang and the Hao taijiquan lineages. Below are the sites for those lineages.
Yang Family Tai Chi Chuan – Official Website The Yang family website

NEW Links to Historical Literature
There is much to be learned from the writings and pictures of past masters. Until recently those of us who did not read Chinese were ignorant of much of this material. Now, thanks to Paul Brennan, you can see the books and read English translations. If you are a student of the history of Taijiquan I think you will find the following site to be a wealth of knowledge. Happy reading!
