History

San Antonio was previously called as the barrio of Delinquente (lit. "outlaw") as residents claimed that the name Delinquente originated from the sinking of a casco (big boat) fully loaded with palay in Pampanga River.

The movement of the separation of Barrio Delinquente from the town of Gapan, and its organization as an independent municipality began in 1839. The petition of the residents of Barrio Delinquente was finally approved in November 1842 but the definite separation from the town of Gapan took place in 1843. San Antonio, along with its mother town of Gapan, Aliaga, Cabiao, and San Isidro were transferred from Pampanga to Nueva Ecija in 1848.
