From her marriage to Rajachandra Das, Rani Rashmoni gave birth to four daughters, namely, Padmamani, Kumari, Karunamoyee, and Jagadamba. When Rani Rashmoni’s husband passed away, she was devastated. Despite the agony, Rani Rashmoni took over the estate’s management that her husband had left behind.

Karunamoyee, one of Rani Rashmoni’s daughter, passed away two years after she had been married. Later, Jagadamba was married off to Karunamoyee’s widower husband, Mathurmohan Biswas. She took care of Karunamoyee and Mathurmohan’s son.

In Rani Rashmoni’s eyes, Mathurmohan became the son she never bore herself. Mathurmohan would assist her in the daily business affairs of her estate. Rani Rashmoni was heartbroken after she lost her second daughter, Kumari. She took up the responsibility to take care of Kumari’s child, Jadunath thereafter.
