Pratapgarh Estate


Pratapgarh was an estate of Oudh, British India. The Taluqdari was controlled by the Somvanshi clan of Rajputs. Now it is part of Pratapgarh district in Uttar Pradesh, India. The rulers of the estate were originally ruling from a place known as Taroul or Tiroul near Allahabad. The ancestor of the family was Babu Sujan Shah, son of Raja Sangram Shah of Tiroul. Later a descendant, Babu Pratap Singh came to the region known as Rampur and built a fort, and gave the city its current name, Pratapgarh.
