What does the text say about Sai Baba's family or early life? Tatya called him 'Mama', were they related?

The excerpts from Chapter 37 do not shed light on Sai Baba's early life or family history. The text does mention that Tatya Patil used to call Baba 'Mama,' which means uncle, but it immediately clarifies that this was a term of endearment reflecting their mutual love and close relationship, not a literal familial connection. The chapter's narrative is centered on the Chavadi procession, detailing the roles of key devotees like Tatya Patil, Mhalasapati, and Bapusaheb Jog in accompanying Baba from the Masjid, surrounded by music, flags, and joyous crowds, as described in Chapter 37.
