Dear Client,

What is the need of copies of aadhar and voter ID for preparing Family Tree. Even am surprise which govt authority or dept. issues family tree. It is self prepared genealogy/pedigree by the family members.

Or If he is applying for Legal Heirs Certificate ?

You can give copies of your Aadhar and voter of card

2) on grandfather demise your mother had one sixth share in the property

3) on mother demise her one sixth share would devolve on her legal heirs

there is no such thing as family tree issued by government authority.

there is family member certificate/legal heir certificate which is issued by authority by revenue authorities for inheritance of property.

Therefore if you want to give your identity cards and not sure about it write the purpose for giving these id proofs on the attested copies.

1) you can give aadhar card and its not fishy, in your family tree you can add all legal heirs name on property including grand mother and your mother.

Did your mother passed away prior to the demise of your grandfather?

Please answer the above.

I think there's no trouble in handing out the docs to your uncle.

1.There is nothing fishy about sharing aadhaar number alone though for making family tree adhaar number is not required.

2.If your mother dies before the death of her parents then she and through her you have share in the proeprty of your grandfather.

3.So ask your uncle to advise the property first and to do this peacefully making a mutual deed of partition is best suited.

4. If your uncle refuses to make the partition deed you can file a suit for partition in the civil court to seek your due share and its separate possession.

It's better to have a conversation with him before giving any document.

As far as I believe, he is trying to get legal heir certificate from the court.

Yes you can give the Aadhaar Card or ID proof as identity it is required for alienation of property in your name and to identify you.

1. Why does he want Aadhar Card to draw the family tree which he is aware of very much?

2. May be he is planning to obtain legal heir certificate from the ward counselor of local Municipal corporation for which he has to submit an affidavit giving your family tree.

3. It may also be that the ward commissioner has asked for evidence of your being the legal heir of your late mother for which the attested copies of the said cards have been sought.

4. Since you are submitting attested copies of the cards only, there is hardly any chance for your uncle to play any mischief ordinarily.

Since he is applying for family tree it is necessary to provide adhar or voter id card along with affidavit that you people are legal heirs. It will be attested by revenue officer. There is nothing fishy about this if you don't believe him give him true or attested copy of documents.

You can give the photo copies of the same with endorsement that these are meant for the purpose of furnishing 'family tree' alone.

This will save you from the apprehended danger/risk.
