NOTE: If you belong to a Fotedar family and do not see your part of the tree, please come forward and contribute. Consult your elders who keep track of the relatives, and send me your part of the tree as an attachment in MS word format to my e-mail address sunilfotedar@yahoo.com .  My ultimate goal is to connect all these branches into one full tree.
