During the Spanish era, there was only one sitio, inhabited by some families. Their homes were huts only, and farming was their living. In the beginning the area had no name. To have a name the Cabeza de Barangay appeared in court, and suggested it be called Cabilang Baybay as it is on the other shore of the river and on the other side of the field. The request was then adopted by the Governor-General Leonard Wood.
