History

Prominent citizens and civic leaders found new hope to make Nanhaya, then a barrio of Pila, a town when the Americans granted the Philippines independence in 1946. They revived the move to separate from Pila. During this time, citizens proposed to name the town Trinidad, after the young republic's First Lady, the wife of then-President Manuel Roxas. Strong opposition shelved the proposal once more.

After Roxas's death, Elpidio Quirino took over the presidency. Nanhaya's residents remained undaunted. They tried once more, intensifying the campaign. The Fernandez clan, the town's most prominent and wealthiest family, including Judge Jose Fernandez, then Mayor Alejandro Fernandez and Atty. Ramon H. Fernandez Sr., as well as Andres Franco, Dr. Agrifino Oca, Gregorio Herradura, and Leonardo Rebong, stood for the proposal. On November 15, 1949, President Elpidio Quirino signed into effect Executive Order No. 282, segregating barrios Nanhaya, Bancabanca, Daniw, Masapang, San Benito, San Felix, San Francisco and San Roque from Pila and forming a new independent municipality.
