Zhū Chuò 朱綽, early-Míng official, native of Dānyáng / Jùróng 句容. The Jùróngxiànzhì 8.22b records him as registrar (zhǔbù 主簿) of Píngyīn district 平陰縣 (Shāndōng) in the early Hóngwǔ years; this dating is the basis on which Schipper & Verellen identify the cyclical dīngsì of his preface to KR5b0134 Tàijí Gě xiāngōng zhuàn with 1377 rather than 1317. In the preface he describes how, while he was serving in Shāndōng and afterwards while in mourning at home, the Daoist Tán Sìxiān 譚嗣先 of the Qīngyuánguàn brought him an inherited but disorderly manuscript biography of Gě Xuán; Zhū, who calls himself a literatus of the same Dānyáng locality, re-edited and prefaced the work, “rearranging it into one juàn.” CBDB has a bare record (id 148664) for him without dates.
