THE former Gazetteer of Bijnor was compiled by Mr. H. C. Conybeare, mainly from the Settlement Report of Mr. A. M. Markham and notes contributed by Messrs. F. 1. Petre and H. B. Punnett. Since its publication the district has undergone great changes, especially in connection with the assessment of land revenue, the growth of population, and the development of communications and trade; so that the volume had become to a large extent obsolete. In preparing the new Gazetteer I have derived much assistance from the Settlement Reports of Mr. F. J. Pert and Mr. A. T. Holme; and I must also express my thanks to Mr. C. E. Wild, for the supply of much new material and for his ready help in revising the proofs. I am indebted, as usual, to Mr. R. Burn, for the portion dealing with the ancient history of the District.
