HISTORY

Cabarroguis is a vast forested area and form parts of the municipalities of Saguday,
Diffun and Aglipay. It is originally occupied by the Aetas and later displaced by the
Ilongot tribe because the Aetas are known of their nomadic characters. Many years
later, permanent settlement were made by different civilized ethnic groups like
Ilocanos, Tagalog and others in search of good fortune in this virgin land. As the
population and settlement increases, regular barrios were created. These are the
barrios of Zamora, Banuar, Burgos, Del Pilar, Dibibi, Eden, Villamor and five (5) more
sitios of Villapena, Villarose, Tucod, Calaocan and Dingasan at the municipality of
Aglipay: barrios of San Marcos, Gundaway and portion of Mangandingay at the
municipality of Diffun and the other part of Mangandingay at the municipality of
Saguday. The above stated barrios of different municipalities became the territorial
jurisdiction of Cabarroguis by virtue of Republic Act No. 5554 enacted by the
Philippine Congress authored by then Honorable Senator Leonardo Perez on June
21, 1969. The newly created municipality of CAbarroguis was named in honor of the
late Congressman of Nueva Vizcaya, Honorable Leon Cabarroguis.
