The Bayar are strictly endogamous community, and practice the principle of clan exogamy. These clans are referred to as ''kuris'', and their main clans are the Kanaujiya, Sakarwar, Barwar, Mahato, Kahto, Kashi and Barhar. These clans are also [[hypergamy|hypergamous]], with the Kanaujiya intermarrying only with the Barwar, Sakarwar and Mahato. They live in multi-caste villages, but occupy distinct quarters. Each of their settlement contains an informal [[caste]] council, known as a biradari panchayat. The panchayat acts as instrument of social control, dealing with issues such as divorce and adultery.<ref>People of India Uttar Pradesh Volume XLII Part One edited by A Hasan & J C Das pages 229 to 234 Manohar Publications</ref>
