History
An early ancestor of this family was Rana Jodh Chand, who came up from Garhmuktasar in Mirut to worship at the Jawalamukhi shrine on the north bank of the Bias, and brought with him followers sufficient to enable him to hold the lower Sawaliks near Garhshankar, with his headquarters at Manaswal. Early in the 18th century, they lost their independence and became tributary to the Raja of Jaswan.
