The Census of 1931-Village Statistics is an official administrative project published by the government of the former princely state of Cochin. This series covers the six historic taluks of Cochin-Kanayannur, Mukundapuram, Trichur, Talapilli, Chittur, and Cranganur. The document provides detailed tabular registers listing villages, towns, and specific municipal wards—such as the 10 wards of Ernakulam Town and the wards of Mattancheri Town. For each entry, it records precise counts of total and occupied houses alongside headcounts of the population broken down by gender, including floating populations. Crucially, the table details the distribution of males and females across major religions (Hindu, Muslim, Christian) alongside granular footnotes accounting for minority groups like Jains, Jews, Buddhists, and Zoroastrians.
