The Alsisar family traces their history to this sub-clan, popularly known as the Shekhawat. The Shekhawat have since been the namesake for the Shekhawati region of Rajasthan, Northern India, which comprises the districts of Jhunjhunu, Sikar, Churu and Jaipur.

Thakur Samrath Singh Ji made Alsisar his capital in the year 1783 AD and developed the Thikana in to a beautiful place. Alsisar Mahal (Palace) was built by the Shekhawat Thikanedars.

Located just outside of Jhunjhunu, the Alsisar Mahal showcases the glorious past of Shekhawati even serving as the location of a fierce battle in 1834 between the British Shekhawati Brigade and the remaining Thikanas (plural of Thakur) of Shekhawati. The Thikanas were refusing to pledge allegience to the Jaipur State and its British overlords. Under the command of Colonel Henry Forrester, the Brigade destroyed one fourth of Alsisar Mahal in the bombardment and ultimately defeated the Thikanas. Thus the Alsisar Mahal represents the convergence of several vital aspects of Rajasthani history.

Maksudpur, Zamindari
--------------------------------------

Dynasty : Bhumihar Brahmin
Hindi Name : मकसूदपुर
Village : 360
Revenue : ₹600,000
State : Bihar (Gaya Dist.)
Religion : Hindu

--------------------------------------
https://infolog.in/maksudpur-zamindari/

Short History :
----------------------
The ancestors of this family established themselves as military chiefs in Utrein at the turn of the 17th century and rendered military service with the Mughal governers of the Suba. With the decline of central authority during the later years of Emperor Aurangzeb’s reign, the family occupied Pargana Sanaut as independent chiefs, consolidating their power and authority over the entire Magadh region by the 1730’s. They established their headquarters at Tikari Fort. After the battle of Buxar, with the British EIC being appointed Diwan by Emperor Shah Alam, the autonomy of the principality became curtailed to that of principal zamindar of Bihar Suba along with the Rajas of Tirhut and Shahabad. Pitambar Singh, the Raja of Tikari lost his Gaddi to his second cousin Mitrajit Singh of the cadet line for siding with Raja Chyet Singh of Benaras against the British EIC. In a subsequent compromise, a small part of Tikari State was carved out with its nucleus at Maksudpur Fort, and Pitambar Singh became the Raja of Maksudpur. Mitrajit Singh was recognized as the Maharaja of Tikari. Hence the Maksudpur history is the Tikari history prior to 1793.
