Seren Ohashu

Overview

Sereng Ehasihu is a member of the Irgen Gioro clan of the Bordered Yellow Banner, recorded in Volume 14 of the official genealogy of the Eight Banners Manchu Clans compiled during the Qianlong reign. His family resided in Fola and submitted to the Qing dynasty at the beginning of the dynasty.

His mother's name, Kuchang, is preserved; the Manchu meaning is not interpreted based on the Chinese characters.

His great-grandson, Suoda, served as an infantry officer. Aiman, a former official, participated in the Zhoushan campaign in Zhejiang and was awarded the rank of Qiduwei (hereditary merit rank). He died without an heir, and his title was inherited by his elder brother's grandson, Huase. The military merit belongs to Aiman ​​and not to their ancestors.

A Langzhong was an official in government affairs, Qiduwei (hereditary merit rank) was a hereditary title for meritorious officials, and Infantry Officer was a military administrative position; these three categories must be separated.

His fourth-generation descendant, Antai, served as a Protector of the Army in the campaign against the Dzungars. He died in battle at the Hetong Hurhana'er and was posthumously awarded the title of Yunqiwei, which was inherited by his son, Dexing. This forms a separate record of merit and cannot be included in Aiman's lineage.

Fola is a historical city name from the Jianzhou Jurchen and Later Jin dynasties. Xinhua News Agency's geographical data indicates its connection to the early history of Fushun's city-building; however, this only provides geographical background and cannot confirm the specific village where Seleng Ehasihu himself resided.

Later generations held high-ranking positions such as Governor of Gansu, Deputy Commander of Jingzhou, and Vice Minister of Works in Shengjing; however, these positions cannot be attributed to the individual in question.
