History

The complete name of this Barangay is Isidro Carmona. Isidro was a Filipino commander who led the revolt against the Spaniards during the Spanish regime.

This Barangay was a former sitio of Barangay Tejeros during the 50’s until the early 60’s. The late Barrio Captains Miling Mangahas, Emiliano San Pascual, and their Barrio Councils worked it out until it was finally approved as an independent Barangay during the same period.[1]
