Mir Mughal
Mir Mughal, mostly just spelled as 'Mir' or 'Meer', is a Kashmiri Muslim clan found both in the Kashmir Valley of Jammu and Kashmir, India, and among the Kashmiri diaspora.
''Origins''
The word "Mir" is a shortened form of the Persian word Mirza, meaning a person of princely blood. Mir in this sense is a short form of Mirza which was a honourable title for Mughals. They are descendents of Mughals who came to Kashmir from Khorasan and Turkestan in 14th century.Difference between ''Mughals'' &; ''Sayyids''
'Mir' was also a common title among the Sayyids of the Kashmir Valley who came to Kashmir from Persia accompanying Mir Sayyid Ali Hamadani in Kashmir during the reign of the Shah Mir dynasty, and the way the two groups distinguish between themselves is that the Sayyids prefix the word 'Mir' to their names, whereas the non-Sayyids(Mughals) use it as a suffix to their names.
