History

Gauria Kalan was historically the seat of the Gauria Kalan taluqdari estate, which was held by a family of Siddiqui Sheikhs. [4] The family's ancestor, Shah Rafi-ud-Din, came from Delhi at the time of Babur. [4] His grandson, Sheikh Tahir, founded Tahirpur and served as qanungo of the pargana of Amethi, and he was the one who added Gauria Kalan to the estate. [4] His brothers were ancestors of related estates at Mahmudabad and Dhaurahra respectively. [4] At the turn of the 20th century, the Gauria Kalan taluqdars held two estates (the other being Nizampur), consisting of six villages and two pattis. [4] The head of the family was Majid Husain, who held the estate along with his brothers Ashraf Husain, Muhammad Ali, and Ahmad Ali. [4]
