I think history knowledge on Ahom Kingdom that Manoj possesses is
commendable, now we have an idea about Gogoi (like Pradip Gogoi and
Tarun Gogoi).

How about Burhagohai and Rajkhowa, like Bhimkanta Burhagohain and
Arabinda Rajkhowa?

Thanks,
Rabin

"In any case let me tell you how this Gogoi clan has evolved. During
Swargodew Rudra Singha's time, the descendants of the four Ahom royal
clans have multiplied manifold, during that period Ahoms were adopting
other people in a great fervour as their land was expanding and they
needed more manpower and real descendants were losing royal favour. They
demanded special recognition and Swargodew allowed them to be called
'Songoi-' or 'songoti'- which over time became 'Gogoi'-due to linguistic
corruption." --  http://groups.yahoo.com/group/assamonline/message/4303
