Clan and Banner Background

Volume 42 of the Comprehensive Genealogy of Manchu Clans of the Eight Banners states that Huxihali was originally a locality used as the name of a Manchu clan. Its families resided at Huxihali and other places. Place-derived naming is a source-based claim here, not proof of a particular Manchu etymology, and it does not mean that everyone from the locality belonged to the surname.

Family Service and Distinctions

Tomokui of the Bordered White Banner came from Huxihali; Lou deng of the Bordered Yellow Banner from Yilan Feiertaha village; Buertali of the Plain Yellow Banner from Guareca; Duerbai of the Bordered Yellow Banner from Ningguta; and Suoxina of the Plain White Banner from Jilin Ula. This distribution demonstrates the separation between clan name, ancestral home, and banner registration.

Kinship, Succession, and Evidence

Tomokui's grandson Laidaha received the baturu title for bravery and held hereditary distinctions including qingche duwei and a barony; another descendant, Made, served as niru commander. Lou deng's descendants included a president of the Board of Personnel, while Buertali's included a president of the Board of War and vice president of the Board of Works. Those were careers of different descendants, not a single continuous biography of Tomokui. Modern place identifications, genealogy, and Manchu spellings await verification.
