Clan and Banner Background

The Saiyinsartu clan is entered in volume 56 of the Qianlong Comprehensive Genealogy of the Manchu Clans of the Eight Banners, with Jarud given as its ancestral area. Its principal figure, Bage, belonged to the Bordered Red Banner and submitted during the Tiancong reign of Hong Taiji, which began in 1627. The genealogy records his service as a vice-minister of the Board of Revenue but does not provide exact appointment and retirement dates.

Family Service and Distinctions

The Board of Revenue had responsibilities relating to households, population registers, taxes, land revenues and government finances. A vice-minister was a senior deputy within this institution. Bage's office should therefore be distinguished from an unspecified general civil-service appointment; the record, however, does not permit all duties of the later fully developed board system to be attributed to his particular tenure.

Kinship, Succession, and Evidence

Bage's son Ayuxi served as a first-class princely-household guard, Yongtai as a bithesi, or administrative scribe, and Feileng'e as a departmental director. A grandson, Hese, became an assistant departmental director. Princely-household guards were not identical to the emperor's ranked imperial bodyguards, while bithesi handled writing and translation rather than commanding soldiers. The clan's precise Jarud locality, institutional affiliations of these offices and complete genealogy remain open to verification. Source: Eight Banners Manchu Clan Genealogy, vol. 56.
