'''Mohammadpur Umri''' is a small village close to the Indian Air Force base of [[Bamrauli]], near [[Allahabad]] in [[Uttar Pradesh]], India.<ref>{{cite web|title=A village of twins|url=http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/home/stoi/deep-focus/A-village-of-twins/articleshow/1719955.cms|website=timesofindia.indiatimes.com|publisher=Bennett, Coleman & Co.

His second son, Advocate Hasin Ahmad, resided in [[Allahabad]] with his son Nisar Ahmad. His residence there is named Mumtaz Mahal. Mohammad Nasir had two grandsons from his son Fazal Ahmad.
