PADINJARE VARIKATT FAMILY

Padinjare (western) varikattu is one of the two main branches of Chenthottathil family. When KURIAN, the
second son of Mr. Thomman Chenthottathil started living in the western portion of Varikattu property, Kurian
and his descendants came under Padinjare-varikattu branch. The other main branch was Kizhakke (eastern)
varikattu Kuriakko and his descendents who lived in the eastern part of the Varikattu property.

Padinjare Varikattu KURIAN had four sons. They and their children lived in Mutholath, Padinjare Varikattu,
Moozhail, and Neduvelil properties originating those family names. The descendents of these families are
mostly in Cherpunkal. Some are in Malabar and United States.
