Source and relationship notes

Selected historical branches transcribed from the 1940 government pedigree appendix. Parent links mean recorded in this source, not independently proven biological descent. Spelling variants are retained in notes. Gaps are left open; succession alone is not parentage. Recent descendants, current locations, contact details and schooling require further sources and consent. Legendary remote origins are not entered as established ancestry.
Sangat Singh and Sarup Singh belong to different branches in this pedigree. No parent link is invented between successive rulers. Post-1900 descendants not confirmed deceased are omitted.
