The Manchu surname Zhao may also be Zhao. He once lived in Xiuyan. The family tree is "Fu Linqing Yuguang, Defu Mountain City Duo, civil and military nobles, good luck and eternal peace." Looking for the old surname.

Most of the Manchu surnames Zhao or Zhao are Aixinjueluo. In addition, you are from Zhenghuang Banner and Changbai Mountain, so you are either a clan member or Jueluo. I think it is most likely a branch of the royal family (Jueluo), commonly known as the red belt.

============================================ ========================

The Aixinjueluo family of the Qing Dynasty royal family. According to the distance of the emperor's blood relationship, he was divided into clan and Jueluo. Since the descendants of Nurhachi's father Tashi, the emperor of the Qing Dynasty, they have all been called the clan; descendants of all generations since Nurhachi's grandfather Jue Chang'an and above are all called Shangyueluo. Naturally, it can be seen that the clan is close to Jueluo.

Most of the Manchu surnames Zhao were originally named "Jueluo"

There are many Manchus with the surname "××Jueluo". Including Yilgen Jieluo, Shushu Jieluo, Xilin Jieluo, Tongyan Jieluo, Ayan Jieluo, Hulun Jieluo, Aha Jieluo, Chala Jieluo and so on. It is believed that "Jueluo" is the surname, and the original meaning of the prefix added to the surname is just to distinguish each other. "Aixinjueluo" means "gold", which is to show their noble status. It is said that at the end of the Yuan Dynasty and the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, there was a war between the Yehenara clan and the Aisinjueluo family. At that time, in order to make the Yehenara clan surrender, he pointed to the earth and said: "We are the earth. The most noble gold." On the contrary, the "Irgen" of "Irgenjueluo" can be translated as "people", which means "common people". After the Revolution of 1911, due to well-known reasons, the Manchus switched to Han surnames one after another. Among them, most people use the three surnames "Liu", "Jin" and "Zhao". Most of the "Aixinjueluo" surnames changed their surname to "Jin" according to the free translation, and a few changed their surname to "Zhao". Other "Jueluo" clans, especially the "Irgenjueluo" clan in Xinbin area, basically changed their surname to "Zhao".

Someone has done a survey: after the fall of the Qing Dynasty, no Manchu family named "Jueluo" in Northeast and Hebei changed their surname to Jin, and all of them changed their surname to "Zhao".
