STO TOMASBrgy. Chairman: RODRIGO O. MIRANDA
Barangay Sto. Tomas was first
called “Pulong Gubat” because it was forest. The first settlers who arrived
here in 1875 were natives of the Ilocano region. They belonged to the Lomboy,
Bumanlag, Pascua and Corpus clans they cleared the forest and planted it to
rice and vegetables. The next thing theydid was to establish the right of
ownership to the land. It took them some 30 years to clean the whole area.The first head of the barangay was one from the Pascua clan. Then from the lomboy and Bumanlag clans. A little later, the barangay was renamed Sto. Tomas. The name of the parton saint in one of the town in the Ilocos Norte.
Sto. Tomas has produced many prominent citizens who have played important roles in the development of the barangay. Raymundo Bumanlag, Sr., mayor of Aliaga for two terms, was a native of this barangay. He died during the war. |
