*gasp* Didn't see this. I can contribute as well.
THE MOTHGUAITH
The entire island tribe of former Fire Nation members was evacuated from their island shortly after the Day of Black Sun, by their Galgori allies. They were discreetly dispersed among the general populations of primarily the Earth Kingdom and Fire Nation, a few to the Southern Water Tribe. From there they mingled mostly with ease; the majority of the Mothguaith were nonbenders, with firebending limited to the priest-families of the Old Ways. Worship of their seven guardian spirits, the sholabs,vanished immediately in the public eye and dwindled quickly even in the privacy of homes, though certain aspects of Mothguaith heritage were maintained and a sort of tribal solidarity still exists today among any who discover each other to be of the island lineages. By the time of Korra, however, these are far scattered, and finding out if someone is secretly a descendant of Mothhaudh is neither a secret nor a priority.
Surnames on Old Mothhaudh were originally given by individual rather than by family, and earned or claimed only some years after birth so that the surname would indicate something about the character or history of the individual. When the Mothguaith joined the societies of the Fire Nation and Earth Kingdom, they abandoned this practice, translating their given names and surnames at the time into the same language as the mainlands (for instance, "Luinnar" meaning blue fire in Mothguaith -> "Lanhuo" meaning blue fire in Chinese). For this reason, natives originally of Mothhaudh will very rarely have the same last name as their families, but children born after the Exile carry the family surname instead of an individual one.

Having stayed behind to delay the Fire Nation Navy at the time of the Exile, Taed and his mother Lotelin managed to survive to mourn the loss of his uncle, Coer's father Ked, and then escaped discreetly to the Western Air Temple after the gAang had been forced to abandon it as a base camp. Originally hoping to gather some remnant of the Exiles back to the Air Temple, Taed first chose to sail to the Northern Water Tribe, where his wife Etsuko, newborn daughter Sora, and stepbrother Goen were supposed to be heading on their own path of making allies throughout the non-Fire nations. Upon the arrival of all four, they were all greeted with the news that Avatar Aang had defeated Phoenix King Sozin. They chose to risk investigating the rumors, traveling back to the Air Temple to retrieve Lotelin before reaching the Fire Nation a month after Zuko's coronation. Staying there briefly to celebrate and to meet with any Exiles they could find, the family elected to move to Mount Makapu Village.
Some years later when Zuko and Aang founded Republic City, Taed and Etsuko felt strongly the need to join the cooperative effort, and moved their family there immediately, sans Goen. While in Republic City, Etsuko and her husband (re-christened Tadashi) grew old together and spoke out in favour of peace and equality to their dying days. They passed on within a week of each other, in the care of their daughter
Sora, who began the
Kimura clan.

Long, long before the Exile occurred, Coer had all but given up his longtime Mothguaith heritage and joined his lesser known bloodline, the Galgori. By the time of the Exile, Coer was already in the underground Galgori village of Terrakoto, beneath the Fire Nation colony of Criaga in the Earth Kingdom. There he studied combat with his girlfriend, Anei daughter of Juraia, whose grandfather had once been a city leader. When news of Avatar Aang's victory over Ozai reached the dual city, Anei and Coer returned to the Fire Nation to verify the news and to move back to their old training grounds at Inoue Michiya's Trading Outpost. While there, they were briefly visited by Coer's cousin Taed and his family, who were leaving for the Earth Kingdom permanently. After that, Coer never saw any Mothguaith again, though he and Taed corresponded semi-regularly.
In adulthood Coer and Anei were married, living briefly at the Outpost before moving back to a place near the destroyed Galgori village where he had fought against the Order of the White Lotus. He had two sons and one daughter, and died in his sleep at around fifty years of age.
