Hi there ,For your information, the first church built at angamaly is evident from the actual names of 3 old churches located within 600 metre distance. 1) Angamaly old St George valiyapally*(Present new St George basilica church) 2) Angamaly St Mary's cheriyapally 3)Angamaly kizhakkepally (St Hormuz church)
 * Refer Angamaly padiyola dated 1787
 * St. Mary’s Cheriyapally, Angamaly also housed the tomb of Mar Thoma I, the great(http://www.catholicatenews.in/catagories/item/1622-two-mistaken-pictures-dr-m-kurian-thomas)

It is now a days a phenomenon to claim antiquity of much older churches by imaginative stories. Cases are there like palayoor-arthat. It's quite funny to mention one of the reason for that:arthat church is named after St Mary's, whereas palayoor named after St Thomas(earlier St cyriac),so the former is older. I hope the same claims are on the way regarding St Thomas church North Paravoor. Take another case of Mar yohannan mamdana church South Paravoor, a 9th century established church. Syrian Catholics owned the old church after the pazhayakoor-puthenkoor split.Jacobites constructed new church on East side of present vaikom road. Syrian Catholics constructed new church in place of old church they retained. Now around 2002 Jacobite patriarch declared the Jacobite church a "valiyapally". What a paradox. A new "church history " on the way. Now some started claiming st Thomas established kokkamangalam church being kothamangalam valiyapally as evident from kothamangalam valiyapally wiki page. I have no problem in Jacobites calling St Mary's church as valiyapally. That's the reason I removed the AD 409 mentioning in page quoting biased content. Neither iam a subscriber of claim that Angamaly valiyapally being established in Ad 450. You are free to edit back to original. I was anyway expecting a message from page creator. Have great day!
