The first father of the Puthenpurackal family was Kurian, a member of the Pakalomattom family who migrated from Kodungallur to Kuravilangadu. In 1537, he came and stayed in Puthenpurayidom, about 400m from Puthuppally St. George church, which was just north of the place where Karottu house is situated now. Even before this, one of Kurian’s sisters had been married to the son of Thomman, who was a member of the Kuttanchira branch of Shankarapuri family, who had come to Puthuppally from Kuravilangadu and settled there at that time. It was this relationship with the Kuttanchira family that became the main motivation for the Puthenpurackal family hero to come to Puthuppally. This information is also recorded in the Plamparambu family history. The descendants of Kurian, the first father, are today divided into four branches, namely Mannaparampil, Kuzhiyadithara, Kuzhiyadithara Valiyamannil, Kallarackal and residing at Puthuppally, Pampady, Thottackad, Kottayam, Ernakulam, Aluva, Thiruvalla, Thiruvananthapuram and in countries like South Africa, Nigeria, America, Canada, Germany, Australia and the Gulf. Pakalomattom Kurian had two sons, namely Iype and Kurian. Iype moved from Puthuppally to Mannaparampil homestead, which was situated east of the Ericadu Vellakottu paddy fields. Kurian stayed at Puthenpurackal itself. Kurian had only four daughters. The families of Kaakkoli, Manganam Puthenpura, Paloor and Kizhakkekkara are the descendants of these daughters. Kochuparambu house, a branch of Kaakkoli family, is now situated in the homestead that was given as a share to the daughter who got married to Kaakkoli. The Vellakottu paddy fields which they have, also once belonged to Puthenpurackal family.
