COMPANY/ AGENCY/ ORGANIZATION HISTORY

AGDANGAN HISTORY

In the early 19th century Spanish Colonial Era, the municipality of Atimonan,
Tayabas (now Quezon Province) had suffered frequent attacks of pirates and outlaws.
A man from this place named Mariano Aguilar thought of moving to a better place to live
well with his family. He asked a good friend and distant relative, Juan Salvador to go
with him to find a nearby peaceful place to settle for good. Along with their immediate
families, they walked through the forest Southwest bound until they found a river. While
traversing the riverside, they found a scenic body of water which was best described as
ladder-like as the waters run over ladder-like steps. They initially named the place
hagdan-hagdan (ladder-like structure). As they moved further west. They found a huge
plane where they later established the town proper. In this land, they built houses for
their families and divided the land area between their family members, relatives, and
friends. The population grew bigger and before the end of the 19th century, this area
was officially called Agdangan (from the word hagdan-hagdan). A barrio of the nearby
town Unisan,Tayabas.

As time went by, the two families realized that there was a pressing need to build
a Church, School building, Marketplace, the Government building, and other facilities
basic to the community. The Salvador family donated the site for the school buildings
and the public cemetery, while Aguilar family donated the lots for the Roman Catholic
Church, the Marketplace, and the Municipal building the population bumped up because
of influx of people from nearby municipalities and provinces adjacent to Tayabas. The
Philippine National Railways established a permanent train station which also
contributed to the migration of the people to this place. The Aguilar and Salvador
families, along with the organization led by Mr. Pedro Olase, again took proactive efforts
to gain independence from Unisan. Their actions led to the foundation of the
municipality of Agdangan, province of Tayabas. The culmination of this endeavor
happened on April 1, 1939, when President Manuel L. Quezon signed into a law the
creation on the municipality.
