Clan and Banner Background

The Shulu clan is recorded in volume 58 of the Comprehensive Genealogy of Manchu Clans of the Eight Banners, with the broad Changbai region given as its ancestral home. Zhunbulu and Baozhu headed separate Plain Red Banner lines described as early adherents. Shared banner, surname, and regional origin do not prove that the founders were brothers or otherwise closely related; the source does not specify such a relationship.

Family Service and Distinctions

Zhunbulu's son Xifo was an infantry-company officer; grandsons Ailatu and Ha'erji served as cavalry- and guard-company officers, and a fifth-generation descendant Heidase held the seventh official grade. Baozhu himself served as a cavalry-company officer; his son Kerde held a personal-guard company position, and grandson Aixi was a ceremonial official. The seventh-grade designation for Heidase does not identify his particular post and cannot be supplemented using another relative's duties.

Kinship, Succession, and Evidence

Infantry, cavalry, guard, and personal-guard companies belonged to different military and court establishments despite the common word “company.” Ceremonial posts were also distinct. Plain Red Banner registration combined military and household affiliation, not a single profession. The precise Changbai settlements and relations among both founders remain unconfirmed.
