Abstract: Owning to the special location of Shanghai, almost every large population migration throughout the history of China left traces in Shanghai. We collected data of Shanghai from 13 populations which have obvious differences in terms of dialects. The cluster analysis on the data showed that the populations to the east of Huangpu River are relatively pure while the populations to the west of Huangpu River are relatively mingled. Both the populations can be further clustered to a third one. This suggests that the populations in Shanghai suburb may have 3 sources. (Most of the inhabitants of Jinhui town in west Fengxian County and the Maqiao town of Minhang area are natives of South China. The inhabitants of Chongming County, Jiading area Pudong area and Nanhui County are the immigrants from North China, those of Touqiao town in Fengxian County, Jinshan area, Zhujiajiao and Shangta of Qingpu area, Tianmashan of Songjiang area are the immigrates from the west. ) These conclusions are generally consistent to the historical record, except for some minor deviations.
