No, as an organized group Jehovah's Witnesses were a recongnized religion long before this date however 1931 was when this group (formally know as "bible students" or IBSA International Bible Students Association) formally adopted the name of JEHOVAH'S WITNESSES.

No, according to the publication "Jehovah's Witnesses Porclaimers of God's kingdom" pub. 1993 p. 200:"For years, Bible Students wore a cross and crown as a badge of identification, and this symbol was on the front cover of the "Watch Tower" from 1891 to 1931. But in 1928 it was emphasized that not a decorative symbol but one's activity as a witness showed he was a Christian. In 1936 it was pointed out that the evidence indicates that Christ died on a stake, not a two-beamed cross."
