Here he had his residence, and made bis revenue collections. He is also traditionally believed to have founded another village to the eastward in the direction of Chirán Chupra, to which he gave the same name and used in the same way. From that day the one village was known as Pachhim (the western) Ráth, the other Purab (the eastern) Ráth, This is the qánúngo's account. The more likely tradition as to the name is that men- tioned in the account of pargana Haweli Oudh, and which I obtained from Mahárája Man Singh-viz., that at a former period the territory between the rivers Gögra and Gumti was known as Pachhimráth and Párabráth. From the village of Pachhimráth or Ráhet the pargana takes its name. More than 200 years ago one Bhagan Ráo, Bais, whose family history will be detailed further on, came from Baiswara, and founded the bazar still knowu as Rámpur Bhagan. A Government fort was also there built, and the Government revenue was thereafter collected there. This tahsil contained the four zila No. of subdivisions of Kúl Saráon, Achhora, No. Name.
