As with other Chitpawan Brahmin family associates members, the Kolhatkar-Bam family associates can be tracked returning to the beginning 1700s Konkan area ofMaharashtra. The Bhat group of Shrivardhan on the Konkan shore came over the Sahyadris and soon increased to the top of the political-social chart of Indian as the Peshwas of Pune and remained there for well over a millennium from the 1720’s. Family and group commitment being a significant inspiration of way up flexibility in those periods, several Chitpawan family associates members soon followed them and created the uplands of Sahyadri on its european mountain their home. Kolhatkars and Bams followed the same design. For more on this exciting public trend, please seek advice from Dr Jagannath Dixit’s exciting guide and documents on Chitpawans at http://www.dixitfamily.com/chitpavan.html. Indeed, there is a huge whole body of such content, both on the internet and in create.

About 13 decades of Kolhatkar-Bam forebears can be tracked returning, showing that the first known people holding these as themselves associates titles resided in the first 50 percent of the 1700s. Absolutely, there were previously forefathers too – all the way returning to the first hominids who resided a huge number of centuries ago but no palpable hyperlinks to their having been around has live through. Alas! We can only go returning 260 or so years!

The very first known Kolhatkar-Bam forebears almost certainly resided in the Nevre – Ganpati Pule area of Konkan, the most crucial family associates deity of all the unique Kolhatkar Families being Koleshwar Mahadeo of Kolthar, a stunning town near to Nevre. However, no Kolhatkar is ever known to have resided in Kolthar itself. From this it can be surmised that only one Bam family associates remaining Kolthar to negotiate elsewhere and, a little while later, got the last name of ‘Kolhatkar’, a crime of ‘Koltharkar’, due to the misinterpreting of the Modi characters ‘th’ and ‘r’ into ‘h’ and ‘t’. These characters look almost the same when published in Modi, which was the cursive program almost specifically used for Marathi composing before introduction of the publishing media. Modi hand composing is infamously vulnerable to misinterpreting.

The Kolhatkar ancestry or ‘Kolhatkar Kula-Vritta’ was first collected by the delayed Balkrishna Shridhar Kolhatkar and showed up in the guide type in Sept 1936. This website efforts to carry that ancestry ahead to the existing efforts and covers a interval of 70 decades, similar to three decades. It also delivers into the flip the Bam ancestry.

The delayed Balkrishna Shridhar has tracked the ancestry returning to 16 officers and no relationships can be discovered between those officers. While such relationships certainly persisted, they have been missing forever! He has known as the genealogies of the descendents of the unique 16 forebears by the titles of cities and cities having the first near relationships with those family associates’ members. The same design has been followed here too.

Many of the guests to this website may be enthusiastic about understanding where exactly the place after which their division is known as is. The response is available on this web page where I have given antenna opinions and co-ordinates of the following lesser-known places: Kolthar and Nevare, from where this all began, Anjarle, Garawade, Jalgaon-Jamod, Kurundwad, Murud, Pandavwadi, Pen, Timarni and Wai.
