Mir is a tribe which has descended from the Butt tribe in Kashmir Valley of Baramulla. It is also in Sindh Gilgit and Punjab provinces of Pakistan and India.
Mir are actually a clan of Bhatt along with Khawaja. Mir are also known as Butt today because they are actually descended directly from the Butt bloodlines. Mir became a clan somewhere around 1850. The Mir clan originates from the Kashmir Valley. Its origin is from the Butt tribe. Its fellow tribesmen are the Butt, Dar, Lone, Khawaja and Malik clans.
The mosaic of ethnic groups in Kashmir is complex and the race structure cannot be explained without understanding the pre-historic movements of people. The racial composition of the province was also influenced by waves of immigrants from the Central Asia and Middle East.

What does the Muslim title Mir e.g. Mir Sahib used in India signify?
Mir is a Kashmiri tribe in India and Pakistan. The word ''Mir'' is used as a respect for a person who is an in-charge, Head or Big-Landlord of a particular tribe, in India & Pakistan. So people use this word for respect when they call some one as ''Mir''. In urdu (language) ''Sahib'' means exactly the same as the word ''Mr'' in English. When you say ''Mr & Mrs'' in English then in Urdu language you say ''Sahib & sahiba''. Sahib for male and sahiba for female. So sahib is also a word used for respect in urdu. When ''Mir'' & ''sahib'' are used together that means you are calling that person with very respectfully. This is why ''Mir Sahib'' is used also for a religious person to show great respect.
