Clan and Banner Background

The Chongjila clan appears in volume 57 of the Comprehensive Genealogy of Manchu Clans of the Eight Banners. Its principal branches include Zhongtai of the Bordered White Banner, Zapujiu of the Plain Blue Banner, Sengku of the Plain Red Banner, and Beihene of the Bordered Red Banner. Their ancestral localities ranged across Ula, Hurha, Warka, and Neyin; one present-day settlement should not be substituted for all of them.

Family Service and Distinctions

Zhongtai's line submitted early. His great-grandson Zhulanbao served as a ministry secretary; Saihana was a guard-company officer at the time of compilation, and a fifth-generation descendant Jindai a bithesi. Zapujiu's family likewise joined early; his son Na'erjiu served as an infantry company officer, his grandson Yinbao as a bithesi, and his great-grandson Tongtai as a ministry director. Sengku's line submitted during Tiancong and produced cavalry- and guard-company officers and a second-class household guard. Beihene's family was recorded as returning from Khorchin during the Kangxi period; his fifth-generation descendant Fudeng'e held an assistant directorship.

Kinship, Succession, and Evidence

Submission and return from another registration were different historical circumstances. Ministry offices, document clerks, military company positions, and household guards were distinct roles and should remain attached to named descendants. The exact changes in affiliation and ancestral settlements remain uncertain.
