 A. Brief History

It was in the year 1796 when Don Angel Pantaleon de Miranda has achieved his one-

year term in San Fernando of being the capitan (town city hall leader) that he and his

better half convinced their companions in putting resources into the northern piece of

the town in the clearing an unchartered area (Henson, 1965, as refered to by Tantingco,

2018).

Culiat was the name of the space which comes from the generally arboraceous

amassing with Aetas (scouting kind); having with an assortment of plant called culiat.

Once cleared, Don Angel expected that numerous San Fernando families would move

around there and accept the open door to defeat the yearly floods. A farmhouse was

worked by the couple in the Barangay Saguin which is brief separation from Culiat as

they walk ordinarily from that point in directing their clearing activities, continually having

the picture of Nuestra Señora del Santo Rosario along with them regularly as they went

to the wooded territories and ask the rosary to interest for divine assurance from the

Aetas. At that point, the clearing activity was sought after by Rosalia de Jesus after

spouse, Don Angel, was reviewed in Manila to a functioning military obligation. In this

manner, Rosalia de Jesus is having the right to be called as the fellow benefactor of

Angeles for her fearless part throughout the entire existence of the town.

(Navarro, 1840, as refered to by Tantingco, 2018).

The clearing activity was done in 1811 coming about because of the initial a few families

in San Fernando to migrate in the new region. The primary place of Don Angel was

worked in the close by to what in particular is currently the Nepo Coliseum and he
likewise constructed the principal church which is presently the Chowking Restaurant

situated along Sto. Rosario Street. The archibishop of Manila went to Culiat in 1813 to

initiate the new area which was then transform into a town following 16 years with Padre

Macario Paras being the main Culiat local minister in the ward. Actually from the

expectation of Don Angel, the authority production of the town of Culiat was being

conceded and Don Angel, then again, paying little mind to any explanation for the

present circumstance restlessly paid the public authority from his own pocket the

equivalent measure of assessments expected to accomplish the endorsed least of 500

citizens. (Maritime and Beyer, 1916, as refered to by Tantingco, 2018). Thusly, in the

sixteenth of October 1829, the pronouncement was marked and the town was renamed

to Angeles from Culiat in light of the fact that it had become a completely evolved town,

a lot greater than the first barangay of Culiat. (Maritime and Beyer, 1916, as refered to

by Tantingco, 2018).
