History
Barangay San Jose Gusu was once a sitio of Baliwasan, and this sitio was called “GOZO”
in Spanish meaning “HAPPY”, referring to the them inhabitants thereat who are mostly farmers
and were living happily and contentedly in their farm life. Then this sitio GOZO was separated
from Barrio Baliwasan and was created into a Barrio known as Barangay, it was subsequently
renamed after the PATRON DEL BARRIO “SAN JOSE” and the qord GOZO was affixed when
it was still a sitio of Barrio Baliwasan.
With the influx of migrants during and after the Spanish era to this Barrio from different
parts of the country who speaks different dialects and languages in their communication, the
word “GUZU” was finally accepted in all writings and communications, hence this Barangay is
presently called and known as BARANGAY SAN JOSE GUSU.
