Marwaha are Ramgarhia

According to this-

Marwaha are Tarkhan

Lol now I am wondering the same thing. You might want to consult with your parents and grandparents or relatives. Have you done that?

Edit: Apparently Ramgarhia are Tarkhans. So it's between Khatri and Tarkhan. Find out if you grandparents or great grandparents were into business or carpentry.

A better idea might be not to give a shite and base your opinion on the character and behaviour of the person...

Accordingly ramgharia is sub group of khatri and of Jatt Sikhs..in khatri sikh they do business related to carpenter and in jatt sikh they were in farming and all ..like their caste are resembling with khatri and jatt sikh

I thought Ramgharia is a misl started by Jassa Singh?? How can it be a sub group? by this logic, other misls such as sukercharia and bhangi misl etc are also subgroups?

I get your point but If you go by the existence of the 'Ramgarhia bunga' (I think it was called?) that used to be in Hazoor Sahib before it was demolished, which was a place built in M. Ranjit Singh's time to house the artisans they sent to Hazoor Sahib to build up the place, it appears as if the name's meaning broadened over time?
