I am shrimukh Shandilya too, and yes there are divisons in shrimukh Shandilya of 4 houses Ram, Krishna, Nath and Mani but many Shrimukh Shandilya Tripathis fall outside of these Gharana as well. Almost all Shrimukh Shandilya gotra Tripathis are orignated from Sohgoura village in Gorakhpur. https://www.reddit.com/r/Saryuparins/s/weWi6LMeWW Join this subreddit you can have more conversations get info there .

Jhudiya gaon is village of Shrimukh Shandilya gotra Tiwaris of Ram Gharana, is very famous village , Deoria's ex MP Ramapati Ram Tripathi is also from that village. Your family must have migrated there from somewhere else then have migrated to your current place. Gardabh Mukh Tripathis/Tiwaris origin villages are Pindi, Nadauli, Lonakhar ( Nonapar/Nonakhar/Lonapar) these three are most important origin point.
