Historical Background

In 1796, Don Angel Pantaleon De Miranda and his wife Rosalia De Jesus
together with their followers proceed North of San Fernando and made the first
clearing from the thickly forested area creating a new settlement, a barrio of
San Fernando known as Culiat in those days. It was on December 08, 1829
that Culiat was officially recognized as an independent town, with a very small
population with only 661 at the time. In May 1899, Angeles became the seat of
the Philippine Government under the leadership of General Emilio Aguinaldo,
and the celebration of the first anniversary of Philippine Independence,
proclaimed a year earlier in Kawit, Cavite was held in Angeles on June 12,
1899. Angeles especially Barangay Sto. Rosario like other towns and cities of
the Philippines was occupied by the Japanese during the Second World War.

Many contributing factors like commerce and other industries make Sto.
Rosario as one of the most progressive Barangay in the City.
