According to the Puranas, the genealogy of Shraddhadeva is as follows:[2]
Yamuna is described as the daughter of the sun god Surya (though some say that she was the daughter of Brahma) and his wife Saranyu (Sanjna in later literature), the goddess of the clouds, and the twin sister of Yama, the god of death. Her other brothers include Vaivasvata Manu, the first man and the twin Ashvins, divine doctors.[4][1] and the planet Saturn (Shani).She is described as Surya's favourite child.[5] As the daughter of Surya, she is also called as Suryatanaya, Suryaja and Ravinandini.

In some Puranic mythology, each kalpa consists of fourteen Manvantaras, and each Manvantara is headed by a different Manu.[1] The current universe, in this mythology, is asserted to be ruled by the 7th Manu named Vaivasvata.[2]
In Vishnu Purana, Vaivasvata, also known as Sraddhadeva or Satyavrata, was the king of Dravida before the great flood.[3] He was warned of the flood by the Matsya(fish) avatar of Vishnu, and built a boat that carried the Vedas, Manu's family and the seven sages to safety, helped by Matsya. The myth is repeated with variations in other texts, including the Mahabharata and a few other Puranas.
Lord appeared as Vamana during this Vaivasvata manu time period.
