It gives me great pleasure to share the attached photograph of the KING OF SHEOHAR - Raja Deo Nandan Singh. And there were many King's in erstwhile BRITISH INDIA but this King was for the people. He handled the people with great care and took good care of them during the famines that engulfed CHAMPARAN and MUZZAFARPUR. He built schools but never put his name on it. He got respect for his work and high position.
Some refer this KING as RAJA DEORAJ NANDAN SINGH or even RAJA DEOKI NANDAN SINGH.
RAJA DEO NANDAN SINGH was married and had 4 issues ~ 2 SONS and 2 DAUGHTERS.
1st SON :
RAJKUMAR BAIDYANATH NANDAN SINGH
1st Marriage - Maghaiya Patti - CHAINPUR ESTATE (EKSARIYA)
Had 2 Sons - RAJKUMAR LACHMI NANDAN SINGH and
RAJKUMAR KALIKA NANDAN SINGH
2nd Marriage - AUSANGANJ (near BENARAS). No ISSUE.
2nd SON :
RAJKUMAR GIRJA NANDAN SINGH Married into TEKARI RAJ (9 ANNAS). No ISSUE.
He married the sister of the MAHARAJA OF TIKARI - MAHARAJA GOPAL SARAN SINGH
Please note that another sister of MAHARAJA GOPAL SARAN SINGH of TEKARI RAJ would be
married into CHAINPUR ESTATE.
DAUGHTERS of RAJA DEO NANDAN SINGH -
One of the Daughters would go on to marry BABU TRIVIKRAM DEO NARAYAN SINGH of CHAINPUR ESTATE. There would be NO ISSUE.
The Other Daughter would marry into the ZAMINDARI ESTATE of BAGOURA. The Present family of BAGOURA ESTATE traces it's roots to this LADY and the d/o RAJA DEO NANDAN SINGH.
