Barangay Hidalgo was then a sitio or purok called Camalig of Barangay Banjo, then called Barangay Bungcalot. After having its independence, the name Hidalgo was adopted in honor of the late Pacencia Hidalgo, doting of former speaker Jose Bayani Laurel, for her invaluable contributions to the development of the barangay. The most remarkable of which is a one hectare lot where Hidalgo Primary School stands.
