18~19세기 載寧李氏家 호구단자를 통해 본 노비 家系

Abstract

This study set out to analyze the ways that Jaeryeong Lee family kept its tabs on its servants and servants lineage based on 62 hogudanjas and junhogus kept by the head family of the Yeonghaepa from 1684 to 1897. The Lee family's hogu data were recorded for 200 years or so including nicknames separate from the main family, which is an advantage for understanding the lineage despite the fact that a noble family register didn't usually contain the information about the entire servants. When looked into the servants recorded in the 62 family registers, the actual number of servants was 250. The percentage of those servants that formed a lineage through the vertical relations of "parent-child" was about 48%. The ten families that consisted of three generations through such a vertical relation continued the lineage through the female servants, which suggests that the concern of the masters, whose main interest was to secure the ownership of their servants' descendents, was reflected in the lineage and family register records. Judging from the family trees, it's revealed that the servants families managed to continue the lineage through a representative regardless of the number of siblings in most cases. The medium was the female servant rather than the male one and appointed randomly regardless of the eldest son or daughter. The straight line-based lineage continuation of servants owned by noble families implies that there were many cases of the lineage not being passed down and that many servants grew out of the ownership by noble families. Since it's an issue related to the maintenance and continuance of servant status in addition to the family lineage, future study will need to cover it.
