Hasanpur is named after a [[Pathan]] ruler named Hasan Khan, also called Mubarak Khan, who drove out the previous [[Goshain]] rulers and gained control of the town in 1634. The Pathans remained the primary [[zamindar]]s until the 20th century, although at the turn of the century the most important Pathan family was the Nimwala family, who were of more recent origin than the original founders. The Nimwalas traced their ancestry three or four generations back to one Bahadur Ali Khan.<ref name="Gazetteer">{{cite book |last1=Nevill |first1=H.R. |title=Moradabad - A Gazetteer |date=1911 |publisher=Government Press |location=Allahabad |pages=215–6 |url=https://archive.org/details/in.ernet.dli.2015.531222 |access-date=22 January 2021}}</ref> | Hasanpur is named after a [[Pathan]] ruler named Hasan Khan, also called Mubarak Khan, who drove out the previous [[Goshain]] rulers and gained control of the town in 1634.
