The Bhale Sultan Khanzadas are different clans have different traditions regarding their conversions. According to some authorities, the word ''Bhale Sultan'' means king of [[Spear]], a title given to army commanders in medieval [[India]]. Spear is called ''[[Bhala]]'' in Indian languages. There are in fact two distinct communities of Bhale Sultan, those of [[Bulandshahr District|Bulandshahr]] and those of [[Awadh]].<ref>Tribes and Castes of North Western Provinces and Oudh Volume I by William Crook pages 253 to 257</ref> | |||
In western [[Uttar Pradesh]], the Bhale Sultan of [[Bulandshahr District]] trace to ancestry to Hamir Singh, a [[Solanki]] [[Rajput]], who was granted the title of ''Bhale Sultan'' by a grateful [[Sultanate of Delhi|Sultan of Delhi]] for subjugating the [[Meo (ethnic group)|Meos]], who had been attacking royal forces. He was granted a [[jagir]] near [[Delhi]], and settled in the village of Amigan. A descendant of Hamir Singh, Khan Chand converted to [[Islam]], and was granted an estate in [[Khurja]]. Khan Chand was an important courtier of [[Khizr Khan|Khizar Khan Sayyid]]. They are now several Bhale Sultan villages in the vicinity of [[Khurja]]. They form one of the larger [[Ranghar]] biradaris in the district.<ref>Tribes and Castes of North Western Provinces and Oudh Volume I by William Crook pages 253 to 257</ref> | |||
The Bhale Sultan in [[Awadh]] have different traditions as to their origin. Those in [[Sultanpur District]] trace their descent from Palhan Deo. This conversion is said to have taken at the time of [[Sher Shah Suri]]. From Palhan Deo descend the [[taluqdar]] families of Deogaon, Unchgaon and Mahona.<ref>A Gazetteer of Sultanpur District Volume XLVI: Gazetteers of the United Provinces edited by H. R Neville</ref> While in neighbouring [[Faizabad District]], they trace their descent to Rao Mardan Sinh, a horse dealer from the village of Dundiya Khera, who is said to have to seized territory from the [[Bhar]]s, which was confirmed by the then Sultan of Delhi. A descendant Baram Deo converted to [[Islam]], and founded the [[Faizabad]] branch of the community.<ref>A Gazetteer of Faizabad District Volume XLII: Gazetteers of the United Provinces edited by H. R Neville</ref> | |||
Besides these taluqdar families, there are several settlements of the Bhale Sultan Khanzada found throughout [[Awadh]]. In [[Barabanki District]], they are found in several villages near the town of Subeha. While in [[Sultanpur District]], there are several settlements near Jagdishpur, such Makhdumpur, Kachhnaon, and Nasura. Other settlements are found in [[Gonda District|Gonda]], [[Bahraich District|Bahraich]], [[Balrampur District|Balrampur]], [[Shravasti District|Shravasti]], [[Lakhimpur Kheri District|Kheri]] and [[Raebareli District|Raebareli]] districts. | |||
