In India, what larger caste is the Isai Vellavar a subcaste of?

All I can ever find is their connection with devadasis. I know they often became devadasis at age 3, now I need to know more. I can't even find which of the main castes they were part of, much less their standing in society! Can anyone, maybe someone from India, fill in some details for me?

I know nothing about the culture, but encountered these articles which seem to be comprehensive. Thought I'd share them with you:
