While Zhu is a common Chinese surname, as rendered it reflects pinyin spelling conventions for Mandarin Chinese which did not exist until the 1950s. Before that it might have been spelled Chu, Joo, or some other idiosyncratic way, but the use of "zh" for the J sound in Chinese did not exist before the 1950s.
