Iype Iype was the eldest son of Pothan Iype. Iype, who was highly educated at that period established a school near Nilackal church and worked there as a teacher. He married Kottarathil Judge Itty’s sister Annamma. He went to Chennai for higher education, but died due to cholera while returning from Thiruvananthapuram to Kottayam in company boat. After his death, wife Annamma took over her rights from this family and went to live with her brother Judge Itty. They had no children. In order to overcome the grief caused by his son’s death, father Iype took Kurian, who was also known as Akkarakoch and the son of his brother Varghese Pothan, from Kuzhiyadithara to stay at Kallarackal.
