v1.c13.61

² He was styled from the name of his capital Rajah of Ambhere, now better known by that of Jeypoor or Jeynugur. He was probably grandfather to the celebrated astronomer, Jey Sing, who succeeded to the principality in 1693. [This is not correct. There were two ruling chiefs of Jaipur between Mirzā Rājā Jai Singh and Sawai Jai Singh. The succession of the latter took place in 1699, not in 1693.]
