History
Early History[citation needed]
The Kamsar Pathans, who are found mainly in the Ghazipur District of eastern Uttar Pradesh are the descendants of Narhar Khan, great grandson of Maharaja Kam Dev Misir alias Rao Dalpat Singh Sikarwar, born in 1445 AD, who was son of Maharaja Jay Raj Dev Singh. Kam Dev was ruler of Pahargarh estate and the army chief of his father's army. After the death of his father, Kam Deo's younger brother Maharaja Dham Dev Singh was made the king of Vijaypur Sikri (known as Fatehpur Sikri) and ruled from 1504 AD-1527 AD. Kam Deo had four sons, Anchal Misir, Vichal Misir alias Rao Ratan Pal Singh, Sarnag Misir alias Rao Bhairav Das Trilokdas Singh, and Rohit Misir alias Haibanth Rup Sen. Vichal Misir, Sarang Misir and Rohit Misir founded 70 villages near Morena in Madhya Pradesh. After the Battle of Khanwa and Battle of Madarpur Kam Dev along with his elder son's family and Dham Dev came down to Ghazipur on 26 October 1530, and purchased land by paying 10,000 gold coins to the Cheru tribal chief of Birpur named Tikam Deo. Kam Deo settled at place know known as Reotipur and Dham Deo settled at Gahmar village. It is said that they settled there because the region had 18 rivers. Kam Deo gave more fertile land to Dham Deo in a fatherly gesture. Dham Deo had two sons, Roop Ram Rao and Diwan Ram Rao. Descendants of Roop Ram Rao established 84 villages near Gahmar and Kudra in Bihar. Descendants of Diwan Ram Rao founded Bhabua, Chainpur and many other nearby villages. From among Kam Deo's family Anchal Misir had two sons, Raja Harish Chandra Misir also known as Harish Chandra Rao and Reosar Misir alias Reosar Rao. Descendants of Reosar Rao established Nagsar and some of the other villages near it and Mohania in Bihar estate. Harish Chadra Rao had four sons, Rajmal Rao, Sansarmal Rao, Gasaimal Rao and Puranmal Rao. Descendants of Rajmal Rao, Sansarmal Rao and Gosaimal Rao established many villages in Zamania thesil of Ghazipur district. Puranmal Rao had seven sons, Narhar Dev Rao, Ratan Dev Rao, Shahjamal Rao, Tejmal Rao, Thakurai Rao, Hindu Rao and Jatan Rao. Descendants of Ratan Dev Rao, Shahjamal Rao, Tejmal Rao, Thakurai Rao, Hindu Rao and Jatan Rao established many villages near Ramgarh bihar thesil, Reotipur, Rampur, Semra, Sherpur and Mahend.[10][15][11][8][5][16]
The Kamsar Pathans[citation needed]
Puranmal's elder son Narhar Dev Rao adopted Islam in the year 1542 AD and was renamed Narhar Khan. Narhar Khan adopted Islam, being influenced by Makhtom Saiyyad Shah Junaid Qadri Rahmatulla alae. He later had a poor relationship with his brothers and the rest of the family members because when he told he adopted Islam his father and younger brothers were angered and his father removed him from his house and given a peace of land near Karmanasaha river. Later, he became a large zamindar of the region and was also made Jagirdar by Sher Shah Suri. He established Dildarnagar kamsar pargana and Kamesardih kot (fort) in 8.25 acres(13.2 bigha) of land. There is disagreement regarding the area of the fort it also said that the fort was in 32.5 acres (52 bigha) of land. Descendants of Narhar Khan established villages in Dildarnagar kamsar. Narhar Khan was made Jagirdar of Ghazipur by the Mughal emperor Sher shah suri. Descendants of Narhar Khan are known as Kamsar pathans. Narhar Khan had five sons, Jahangir Khan, Baran Khan, Usman Khan, Khanjahan Khan and Barbal Khan. Jahangir Khan established Usia South and Khajuri villages. Descendants of Baran Khan established Mania, Gorasara, Rakasaha, Bahuara, Dewaitha, Saraila, Jaburna, Fufuao, Kahraicha, Rasulpur Newada and Sihani villages. Descendants of Usman Khan established Tajpur Kurrah and Akhini villages. Descendants of Khanjahan Khan established Kusi and Bhaksi villages. And descendants of Barbal Khan established Usia North and Arangi village. One family also diffused to Daltonsganj and established 12 villages there. Narhar Khan gave more land to Baran Khan because he had more sons. People from these villages (villages in Daltonsganj are not included) which were established by the descendants of Narhar Khan are Pathans and are known as "Kamsar Pathans" and the region is known as Dildarnagar Kamsar or Kamsar. The sons and grandsons of Narhar Khan also had a good relationship with the mughals, especially Akbar and also the ruler of the Sur dynasty, Sher Shah Suri. Narhar's great grandson named Sarkar Diwan Raja Kuttul Khan Zamindar Jagirdar Taluka Seorai was also made Sarkar of Ghazipur, Diwan of Bihar and Jagirdar and zamindar of 52 villages from Seorai by the Mughal emperor Akbar in year 1600AD. Kuttul Khan also made a small fort at Seorai. After the death of Kuttul Khan, his cousin Diwan Jagirdar Daud Khan zamindar was made the Diwan of Bihar ,Governor of Ghazipur and the Jagirdar of Zamania tehsil and Daudpur (Know Dewaitha) by the Mughal emperor Jahangir. The Archaeological Survey of India has also excavated some old polished cutlery from Kamesardih kot (fort) in 2009, giving insight into the region's history. 2.25 acres of land is taken for the survey.[10][17][18][14][19][20]
