About Relatives

Again … largely a personal stuff!

This section largely contain details comprehensive family tree. We start with immediate family tree then go to Jhawar (mothers) side and then finally to Kakani (fathers) side. Please note that there’ll be a few errors and a few family members would have got excluded (inadvertently). We apologize for this.

I present here the immediate family tree (both, past and present):

Tree No 1

The originating village of mother was Ren (near Merta City, Nagaur District, Rajasthan). Her side of the family tree is given below:

Tree No 2

The originating village for father was Jayal (near Didwana Town, Nagaur District, Rajasthan). Given that it attempts to capture six generations – hence, this family tree will be split into three parts, tree nos. 3, 4 and 5. In the trees below, wherever surname is not mentioned then by default surname it will be Kakani. Tree No 3 details about the oldest generation. Tree No 4 details from the great grandfathers generation especially dwelling into the details of Jethmal dadaji family (parivar). Lastly, tree no 5 captures the family details from my dadaji’s (grandfather) to my kid’s generation.

Tree no 3 below describes the family tree from my dadaji (grandfather) to his dadaji (grandfather).

Tree No 3

Tree no 4 below describes the family tree from Jawharmalji onwards till my fathers generation. It captures the details of Jethmalji family tree. Normally this might be considered unnecessary. But, this becomes important given Marwari joint family structure and the social network therein.

Tree No 4

Tree no 5 below describes the family tree from my dadaji (grandfather) to my bacchas (children).

Tree No 5

Incidentally, in India, you can get hold of your own (and others) family trees by talking to the Panda(s) located in religious places (such as, Haridwar, Puri, Kashi, Dwarka, Rameswar, etc.) by paying a small price. They keep a record of the same along with dates of birth, marriage, and death of all members of the family tree.
