इतिहास

जयपुर रियासत के शेखावाटी भाग में गूगौर और बागौर नाम के दो गाँव थे। इनके स्वामी जयपरतनामी चौहान थे। जयपरतनामी के 4 पुत्र हुये 1. जाटू, 2. सतरोल, 3. राघू, और 4. जरावता. जाटू का विवाह सिरसा नगर के सरोहा गोत्री ठाकुर की पुत्री के साथ हुआ। जाटू के दो पुत्र हुये पाड़ और हरपाल। पाड़ ने राजली ग्राम बसाया जो अब जिला हिसार में पड़ता है। [p.11] राजली सारा जाटों का गाँव है जिसके स्वामी भी जाट हैं। हरपाल ने गुराणा गाँव बसाया जो राजली के पास ही है। यह ग्राम भी जाटों का है।

चेतंग नदी, जो यमुना से निकलती है, के किनारे पर जाटों के अनेक गाँव हैं। इन गांवों को सतरोला ने बसाया इसीलिए इनको सतरौले बोलते हैं जिनमें सामिल हैं – नार नाद, भैनी, पाली, खांडा, बास, पेट वाड़, सुलचाणी, राजथल आदि प्रसिद्ध गाँव हैं। यहाँ सतरोला का खेड़ा भी है। इसीसे यह प्रमाणित होता है कि ये सारे गाँव सतरोला ने बसाये। इन सारे ग्रामों का स्वामी सतरौला था।
