Fort Seth Ardeshir Dadibhoy 25-September-1803 kzamembers.wetpaint.com
In 1771 C.E. Dadibhai Noshirwanji Dadyseth (q.v.) established an agiary (see ātaškada) with an Ādarān fire (q.v.) for the sake of the soul of his first wife, Kunverbai, in the Fort district of Bombay. The fire was tended with Shenshahi rites by Bhagaria (q.v.) priests from Navsari (Vatcha, I, p. 309). Dadyseth having subsequently become a Kadmi, his son Ardashir after his father’s death built a finer temple on adjacent land and had the fire installed there, with Kadmi rites, on the day of Sarōš, month of Farvardīn, 1173 Yazdegerdī/25 September 1803.
