There was a king Gadadhar Parmar of Sindh (Pakistan). Acharya Shri Jindutt suri enlightened him in V. 1200. His Gotra was named Gadvanaor Gada. Later the family of Gadvana settled in Kachh. Shri Bajparshah was a famous person of this family. His son was Kurparsingh. Kurparsingh managed a grand Sangh for Palitana. There he built a jain Temple of Lord Parshvanath and installed a golden pinnacle on the tower of the temple. Acharya shri jindave Suri named him ‘Karnia’ and this became his Gotra Gadvana and Kenia are its parallel gotras.
Kuldevi of this gotra is Shri Arbudadevi.
