Thanks

Many thanks for the excellent encouragement received from all of you through your mails.
Mr. Bhooprakash spoke to me yesterday from Navasari. Thanks you very much for pointing out that I have missed to include the name of Dear Shivam s/o Shri Sharad in the family chart. I will correct the chart shortly and republish. Thanks once again for the active interest in the project and your encouragement.

Today I am publishing the pictures of first few pages from the Dashera Book. These are the pages for the Dashera celebrated on 6 October 1929 and gives family chart prepared at that time. This also shows the exact words used to write Dashera Puja. The first picture is of the book itself and then the pages. Please enjoy the history:
















In fact you can also see the signatures of some of our respected members of the family at that time. This is the practice that each of the family member present in the Puja signs and names of those members are written  who are not present at the time of Dashera Puja.
Please do write to me the information you have about Dashera Puja tradition being followed in our family now.
Once again thanks to all of you for your cooperation and encouragement.
