My Journey

0fe97655-4830-4ad8-a169-29059b42a3f2
I am George, (self-styled as Palamattam Xavier George – in short , P.X. George) son of Xavier, the last son of Varkey who migrated from Kuravilangad. I lived in the ancestral house at Kothamangalam, studied up to fifth standard in elementary school, Kothmangalam and rest of the studies in St. George School, passed out in 1960, migrated to Coimbatore on 1-6-1962. Since then I am living there. My family details are given in this booklet.

I am making an attempt to find out how far is the Palamattam family spread over from its base at Kothamangalam. There was a family koottayma of Kothamangalam Palamattam families and I attended a family meeting some years back in the house of Mr. Antony (Manichettan’s son) living at Nellimattam/Kavalangad. However it did not take-up further.

The inspiration for this work now came from Mr. Varkeyachan (Dr. George Palamattam), son of Aanakkallungale Pailychettan (the second son of Joseph who migrated from Kuravilangad). Varkeyachan is living in Chicago, USA. During our recent visit to USA, he made some references and enquiries about the Palamattam Kudumba Koottayma at Kuravilangad. This Koottayma has world wide membership and has a very large base and network, including Europe, America, etc.

I have made lot of enquiries, sometimes repeatedly and few might have got annoyed and scolded me too. Thank you very much for your patience and cooperation. Excuse me for testing your patience. There may be mistakes in the compilation. You can call me and I will correct it. I am making an attempt. Success or failure depend upon your enthusiasm. Suggestions are welcome.
