Early migration took place in 1958. There were about 30 migrated families in this area by 1965. The famine after World War II saw a large-scale migration of people from Central Travancore (specially from Meenachil Taluk) to this area. The majority of them were Roman Catholic Christians who had a different social and agricultural background. They were hard-working people, and they brought new agricultural practices to this area. They introduced cash crops like rubber to the local people. The major plantation crops of this areas since then have been rubber, arecanut, coconut, pepper etc.[1]

Philip Murinjakallel. The construction of the new church was completed during the tenure of Rev. Fr. George Arikunnel.[2]
