Memons (Kathiawar)
The ancestors of present-day Memons who settled a few centuries ago in various parts of the districts of India, particularly Kathiawar (now Saurashtra), commonly identified as simply Memons.
The language of Kathiawadi Memons is Memon, sometimes called Memoni.[1]
The South African Memon community is largely descended from Memons who emigrated from Kathiawar in the early twentieth century.
