Every person in Hindu community is linked to Kuldevi and Kuldev. Everyone in Hinduism have a Kuldevi and Kuldev.
So What is purpose of it?
Lets discuss that in the thread below. 1/n
If you are able to trace back your Poorvaj(Ancestor), you will come to know that at one point of time they originated from any Rishi who himself originated from any Devta.
In this way the Devta with whom your DNA matches, is your Kuldevta.
In case you don't know Kuldevta/Kuldevi, you can simply worship them with below mantras:
|| ॐ श्री कुलदेवताभ्यो नमः ||
|| ॐ श्री कुलदेव्यै नमः ||
When Kuldevta and Kuldevi are not known, you can offer separate prasadam in their name to your deity.
Since Kuldevta and Kuldevi have a direct link with your DNA, they are considered more close to you as compared to other Devtas.
In this way they are also your family's first line of defense against negative energies.
Regular worship and Homa of Kuldevta creates a shield around your family. These days people don't worship Kuldevta and don't know even.
Therefore, the shield which protects the family weakens over time.
This website is a good effort to share some information about Kuldevis. missionkuldevi.in

Pitra Dosh– In contrast to the misconception of it being the curse from forefathers, Pitra Dosh is actually a karmic debt of the ancestors. It is reflected in the Kundli in a form of malefic planetary combinations and is to be paid by the person having Pitra dosha in his Kundli.
To put it simply, Pitra dosh is formed in a person’s horoscope, when his/her ancestors have committed some sin or mistake. So, in exchange for that, the native is held accountable to pay for the wrongdoings of their forefather’s past deeds by going through various punishments.
Presence of Pitra Dosha in one’s horoscope may bring about some inevitable and unexpected hardships in the native’s life. It causes severe ups and downs in one’s lifespan. The native tends to suffer from a lack of mental decisiveness and money.
