The four lines

Idiculla's four sons founded the four lines that every later name belongs to. The colour of a line follows a name everywhere on this site.

His three brothers — Kunjummen at Kuttiyil, Ittyavara at Kottomannil and Thommy at Kallodikuzhiyil, all in Melukara — are named in the record but not traced here.

What this Kudumbayogam is for

To keep the family's record in one place, to make it usable by anyone descended from Idiculla, and — most urgently — to gather what the written record never held. The source gives names, houses and places. It gives no dates, no occupations, and almost no women.

The oldest generation can still place people no register can: who married whom, who moved where and why. That window closes. Everything else on this site exists to serve that.

Paramparyam · The tradition as it was handed down

പാരമ്പര്യം

A couple left Kuravilangad looking for fertile ground, followed the Pampa to Kozhencherry, and bought land at Melukara. Everyone in this record descends from their four sons.

മലയാളം

കല്ലോടിക്കുഴിയിൽ കുടുംബത്തിൽ പൂർവ്വ ദമ്പതികൾ കുറവിലങ്ങാട്ടുനിന്നും ഫലപുഷ്ടിയുള്ള സ്ഥലം അന്വേഷിച്ച് പമ്പാ നദിയുടെ തീരത്തുള്ള കോഴഞ്ചേരി മേലുകര എത്തി അടുക്കോലി പോറ്റിയുടെ വക സ്ഥലം വാങ്ങി വീട് വെച്ച് താമസമാക്കി എന്നുള്ളതാണ് നമ്മുടെ പാരമ്പര്യം. പ്രസ്തുത ദമ്പതികൾക്ക് നാല് ആൺ മക്കൾ ഉണ്ടായിരുന്നു. ജ്യേഷ്ഠ സഹോദരൻ ഇടിക്കുള ഇടനാട്ടിൽ ചെറുതിട്ട കല്ലോടിക്കുഴിയിലും രണ്ടാമത്തെ സഹോദരൻ കുഞ്ഞുമ്മൻ ഇടിക്കുള മേലുകര കുറ്റിയിലും മൂന്നാമത്തെ സഹോദരൻ ഇട്ടിയവറാ മേലുകര കോട്ടോമണ്ണിലും നാലാമത്തെ സഹോദരൻ തൊമ്മി മേലുകര കല്ലോടിക്കുഴിയിലും വീടുവെച്ച് താമസമാക്കി.

English

The former couple of the Kallodikuzhiyil family moved from Kuravilangad in search of fertile land, reached Kozhencherry Melukara on the banks of the Pampa River, bought the land belonging to Adukkoli Potty, built a house and settled there. The couple had four sons. The eldest, Idiculla, settled in Cheruthitta Kallodikuzhiyil, Edanadu; the second, Kunjummen Idiculla, at Kuttiyil in Melukara; the third, Ittyavara, at Kottomannil in Melukara; and the fourth, Thommy, at Kallodikuzhiyil in Melukara.

The four sons of Idiculla

Of the four brothers, the record follows the eldest, Idiculla of Cheruthitta Kallodikuzhiyil in Edanadu. His four sons founded the four lines that every later name in this tree belongs to. The lines of Kunjummen, Ittyavara and Thommy are named here but not yet traced.

What this record contains

The live record holds 223 named people across 8 generations. It began as a transcription of the Cheruthitta Kallodikuzhiyil & Plavelil family tree, version 1.0, May 2026, which listed 121 names. Names added since then were accepted through the custodian review, not inferred. The source gives names, houses and places of settlement. It does not give dates, spouses or occupations — those slots are shown as not recorded on each person's page so it is obvious what the family still has to gather.

How the joins were established

Every father-and-son link in this tree came off a connector line drawn in the source. Nothing was inferred from a name. Patronymics are the trap.

Filling the gaps

  • Living memory first. The oldest generation still with us can place people the written record cannot.
  • Dates of birth, marriage and death. Church registers at Kozhencherry, Kadapra, Edanadu, Othera and Koipuram are the usual source.
  • The women. Wives, daughters and the families they married into are the single largest gap in this tree.
  • The three untraced lines. Kuttiyil, Kottomannil and Kallodikuzhiyil-Melukara are not yet mapped at all.
