Clan and Banner Background

The Futa clan is recorded in volume 60 of the Comprehensive Genealogy of Manchu Clans of the Eight Banners, with the Changbai region identified as its ancestral home. Zengqisheng of the Plain Red Banner submitted early and held a ceremonial post. The genealogy specifically notes that his registration had been transferred out of the banner's booi establishment. The detail concerns both his appointment and the history of his administrative affiliation.

Family Service and Distinctions

Booi was a particular category of household relationship and registration within the banners, not an occupation in itself. A transfer from the booi establishment of the same banner does not establish transfer from another banner colour. Neither the precise persons affected nor the date of the registration change is fully explained in the passage and should not be invented.

Kinship, Succession, and Evidence

A ceremonial officer dealt with ritual arrangements, typically in a princely-household institutional setting; that post was different from imperial bodyguard service or an inheritable military distinction. The source establishes that Zengqisheng held such an office but does not identify the prince served, make his entire clan hereditary ceremonial officers, or give a precise modern birth village. Such questions require examination of personnel and registration documents.
