History

During the Spanish period, the Spanish used to go to this place during weekends to fly kites of different designs and colors. The first settlers here came from the town of Imus. Among them are the families of Faustino Alvarez, Flaviano Pakingan, Gregorio de la Cruz, Pablo Papa, Dominguez and the Martinez. During the Spanish period, this place became a hiding place for the Katipuneros/revolucionarios.

During the Japanese occupation, some hide-outs of the guerillas were found here such as those of the P.Q.O.G., R.C.T.C. Hunters, Reyes Regimen and Saulog Regimen. On June 1943, the Japanese ordered the residents to assemble in front of the school and they were not given food and water from morning until evening. Suspected guerrilla members were killed.
