Our family story

This starter follows the ruling branch from Udai and Ram Singh through Ugar and Mahindar to Shamsher Singh and his sons Raghunath and Padam Singh. It does not turn earlier origin traditions or a list of rulers into undocumented parent links.

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.
The 1940 chart is used for the parent connectors. Twentieth-century descendants are not assumed from the unnamed children or from political succession.
