Comment
The founder of the family was Rao Bar Singh, son of Raja Udayakarna, 3rd Raja of Amber 1367/1389, and who received Mojad (Mozamabad) and was ancestor of the rulers of Alwar, Lawa and Uniara. Today Uniara is a town and a municipality in Tonk district in the Indian state of Rajasthan. it is a tehsil of Tonk district.The distance of the uniara from Jaipur is 138 kilometers.Interesting fact
The 1 Rupee coin from Uniara Feudatory (Princely state of Jaipur) made of Silver weighing 10.98g has an interesting fact that it was one of the first coins to feature the image of a ruler from the Jaipur dynasty, specifically Maharaja Sawai Madho Singh I, who ruled from 1759 to 1806. This coin was part of a series of coins issued during his reign that showcased the ruler's image, which was a departure from the previous coins that featured only religious symbols or motifs. This fact highlights the historical significance of the coin and its importance in the history of numismatics.
