Clan and Banner Background

The Suduli clan appears in volume 51 of the Comprehensive Genealogy of Manchu Clans of the Eight Banners, with branches in Heilongjiang and elsewhere. The Plain White Banner ancestor Fuzhangji has no established submission date. His second son Chuoben recruited and brought in more than one hundred people, receiving the hereditary distinction qidu wei. The genealogy attributes this recruitment specifically to Chuoben, not to Fuzhangji. His son Nikan subsequently inherited the award.

Family Service and Distinctions

Chuoben's brothers Meng'ede and Meng'a served respectively as deputy lieutenant-general and guard-company officer. Later descendants included Deerheli, Budali, and Jinbao in guard-company posts and Tulu'erde as a second-class imperial bodyguard. These were actual appointments, distinct from the inherited rank.

Kinship, Succession, and Evidence

A Plain Yellow Banner line descended from Lusutou was likewise associated with Heilongjiang; Heshu became an assistant banner commander. The genealogy explicitly describes Guolai, Bierletu, and Zhuoerqikai as kin to Lusutou. The last came from Sujia village and had bithesi descendants. Those documented links do not automatically connect the whole surname into one close genealogy, nor do shared personal names establish identity with people mentioned in other books. Locations and exact appointments remain to be checked.
