I. Brief
History
In 1827, the baptismal registers of
the recently established parish of Camaligan contained references to the name
of a barangay of Manuel Salvador, purportedly referring to the area of Marupit,
in Camaligan, Camarines Sur. Manuel Salvador maybe was the forefather of
Casilda Salvador, spouse of Telesforo Prado, the father of Judge Joventino S. Prado.
Other barangays in the baptismal registers included the following: Don Juan
Francisco, Pablo Sto. Domingo, Rafael San Buenaventura, Juan de San
Buenaventura, Manuel Salvador, Angeles Villanueva and Antonio de los
Santos.
According to our first informant,
the incumbent Punong Barangay of Marupit Purificacion
M. Caudilla, the propertied residents of the barangay were Esteban Trinidad
(Zone 1), Cambaling (Zone 2), Gregorio Salvador (Zone 5), and Santiago Serrado
(Zone 4).
This informant told us that,
etymologically speaking, the name Marupit means “to be drenched with rain
water, as it come from the verb “rupit” which means “drenched with rain water.”
But if used as an adjective, marupit could also mean “merciless” (as in “marupit na verdugo”, or merciless
torturer. The natives of this place used to call this place “Marupit” because,
as the story was told to us, during those days people who came to this place were
always drenched with water since large portion of the area was swampy and
always submerged in water, including major pathways that consisted of rice
paddies, all throughout the year. The
climate during those days consisted of prolonged rainy season (May – December)
and short dry months (January to April); hence, being drenched with water had
been associated with the original name of the place.
According
to our first informant, the tenientes
de barangay conducted government functions at their residences. The
first barangay hall constructed was located at the site were the KBB is now
located. The most recent punong barangays were now able to conduct government
functions in their own permanent barangay hall.
Prominent families of the barangay,
among others, included the following surnames: Trinidad ,
Maguigad, Aguillon, Cambaling, San
Juan , Salvador ,
de los Santos ,
Delino, Serrado, Aurellano, Constante, Valerio and Custodio. They had houses
built in the barangay as early as 1945.
The barangay chapel was constructed
on a 5 by 4 meter lot on its original site, which was expanded through the
donation by Patricio Maguigad, a United States World War I Veteran (USWV). In
1945, this chapel was made of homarawon posts and corrugated galvanized iron
for roofing and walls. Here the residents conducted their yearly barangay
fiesta (originally scheduled on April 5 but recently was moved to April 30),
the Sta. Cruzan and the auroras during the month of May. The chapel was also
being utilized as a site for pre-school children to study their cartilla lessons. The first cartilla teacher at Marupit was a
certain Titay Aguilar. She was followed by others when she died in the 1960s.
The public cemetery site at Barangay
Marupit was also a donation to the municipal government by the Trinidad family.
The Trinidad
clan of Barangay Marupit descended from Esteban
Trinidad. Esteban was one of the four Trinidad
brothers who originated from Batangas. These four brothers rode a cargo vessel
to buy carabaos from nearby provinces of Luzon ,
and landed in Mercedes Camarines Norte. One of these four Trinidad
brothers stayed behind at Camarines Norte, who became the forefather of the Trinidad clan there. Three brothers proceeded to Ambos
Camarines Sur, one went to Partido area, another to Rinconada area and one went
to Naga City to eventually marry a native woman
from either the San Juan
or Iñigo families of Camaligan. Esteban permanently stayed in Marupit,
Camaligan. Esteban Trinidad had the following children: Manuel, Pablo, Juan, Damasa and Alejandra.

During the Japanese occupation
1940-1945, certain residents evacuated to safe places in nearby towns. The
family of Patricio Maguigad, a native of Tuguegarao, Cagayan and a USWV, evacuated
to the property of Graciano Azutillo (married to Damasa Trinidad) at Barangay Iquin, Canaman, Camarines Sur in
1942. During World War I, Patricio was assigned from Tuguegarao to Ambos
Camarines and here he married a native of Marupit in the person of Flaviana
Trinidad. After his active service as a Philippine scout, he found employment
as a bus conductor of Alatco Bus Company. Other residents from Naga City
also evacuated to this barangay. These included prominent city residents such
as the families of Ramon Abella Diaz, who occupied Maguigad’s house in 1942.
During the 1950s, most lands (80%)
in Marupit were farm lots used by the residents for cultivation of rice and
other vegetables for home consumption. Only 20% of land in the barangay were
for residential purposes. However, produce of fruit trees and other crops from
the yards, such as pili, santol, nangka, bananas, pomelo, carabao manggo, pajo
and others, were sold by residents in the nearby market in Naga City
to augment family income. Some residents were also engaged in catching fresh
water fishes in nearby creeks and water catchments for their family tables and,
if they had extra catch, were sold to neighbors. Most residents were rice
farmers. Their families found other various employment opportunities in nearby Naga City
as off-farm work. These included carpentry, buying and selling, construction
labor and others. Other residents engaged in food processing such as candy
making. The first candy maker in Marupit was a certain Juan Constante, who made
various kinds of home-made candies in the 1950s. Between 1946 up to early
1960’s, a number of housewives were engaged in weaving tapis and patadyong
which were introduced to the locality by certain chinese by the name of Inciong
and Tsuka. These women used binorong threads as material for their tapis and
patadyong. These tapis weavers’ names were the following: Francisca Delino Aurellano
(Zone 1), Daniela Evamgelista San Juan (Zone 1), Beata Salvador de la Torre
(Zone 2), Flaviana Trinidad Maguigad (Zone 1), Felciana San Jose (Zone 6), and
Primitiva Terrenal (Zone 6). When patadyong
and tapis as clothing material came
in disuse, the local weaving industry in Marupit also stopped.
Our second informant, former

This informant, former Barangay
Captain Antonio Francisco, told us that his main occupation form 1950 until he
became Barangay Captain in 1984 was a master carpenter (skilled). He acted as
foreman during the repair works at Colegio de Sta. Isabel and the construction
of the University
of Nueva Caceres .
His original residence was at the
house of his parents at the Baylon property at Marupit Norte, where he was born
in 1927. He resided at Marupit Iraya when he married and later transferred to this
present location in 1952. Between 1930 and 1940, only about 40 houses were
present in barrio Marupit.
Between 1984 – 89, he was the
barangay Captain of Marupit. The barangay officials during his term were the
following: Zacarias Jacob, Julio Trinidad, Isidoro Nator, Antonio Maguigad,
Carlos Rangel and Pedro Santiago (married to Marciana Sales). The barangay
secretary was Brito Marte Baylon and the barangay treasurer was Porfirio
Aurellano. It was during his term as barangay captain that the concreting of
the 2,035.55 meters Provincial Road by the DPWH, through the Ligon Construction
as contractor, was realized.
He recalls the construction of the
first barangay hall during the term of Natalio Camaong, which consisted of
wooden posts and planks for walls, and nipa shingles for roof. This was the
provisional (temporary) barangay hall. The present site for the barangay hall
was donated by the Trinidads .
Livelihood of the residents during
the early 1930’s consisted of the following: a. Farming – Hundreds of carabaos roamed around the area with no known
owners. Several carabaos were hauled by farmers into rice fields in order to
muddy the soil for two days, in order to prepare the land for rice
planting. Sometimes, carabaos were
butchered, their meat was made into tapas
(thin slices of dried meat) and their skins were also dried to make them into mats
for palay drying. Neighboring farmers provided labor to transplant the palay
seedlings in one’s farm through bayanihan labor. When one’s farm had been
transplanted, the owner would volunteer himself to do transplanting work in
others’ rice fields. Farmers used rantas (a wooden plank dragged by a
carabao) to clean the fields of standing grasses, such as rimoras. b. Fishing – abundant supply of fresh
water fishes were caught in the fields, creeks and ditches, especially during
tye months of January to April when these natural water reservoir were dry.
These fishes were sold to the nearby Naga market or peddled around the
poblacion area; and, c. Weaving – Several
housewives in the barrio used to weave patadyong
and tapis out of binorong threads
that were being delivered t them by two Chinese men, who later bought their
finished products. Weaving was a promising backyard industry in barrio Marupit
since after the war years up to early 1960’s the use of patadyong and tapis outfits
was outmoded.
In March 17, 1955 , while Antonio and several
carpenters finished constructing the house of Patrcio Maguigad near the barrio
chapel, it was announced that the airplane which carried Philippine President
Ramon Magsaysay crashed. Patricio Maguigad butchered a carabao to treat the
workers who constructed his house. It was also during that time that the first
artesian wells were constructed in front of the barrio hermita, the second one
in Iraya in front of Ciriaco Dacian’s residence, and in Ilaud near Santiago
Serrado’s residence.
Many residents used to fetch
drinking water from the aguas potables at barrio San Juan . Residents had dug wells inside
their property were they drew water for bathing, cooking and washing. For
drinking water, they filtered them through ginaras (emery cloth made of abaca
fibers), or katsa cloth, while being poured into a dulay or tapayan. For
toilets, they dug holes on the ground which was covered with whole bamboo
trunks that served as floors.
For bridges, they used taloytoyans
(coconut trunks laid down on the ground of two banks of a creek or ditch),
which rolled over when the area was flooded.
The highest recorded flood in the
barrio was in 1952, during the lima-lima (5
days continuous rain and another five days interval) phenomenon occurred. But
the strongest typhoon recalled by residents occurred in 1915, which left not a
single house standing. This typhoon was said to be stronger than typhoons Jean
or Trix in 1954. To withstand strong typhoons, residents constructed their houses
with posts buried in the ground, the length of which was as long as the portion
above ground. Climate in the area consisted of strong downpour of rain came
after the late month of April and at the start of May (aguas de Mayo). Intermittent but continuous rain came during the
months of September up to December, when strong typhoons came with the amihan winds. Dry months started in the
months of January to March, with the habagat
winds. These are the months when residents dry their water holes for fresh
water fishes.
Cut woods from the kamaligs at
Camaligan were transported to Canaman for utilization via the Marupit-Tacolod
route. Tacolod was then still part of Marupit. It was in Tacolod where big
hamorawon trees grew. The residents cut them down to be used as house posts or
sawed them as lumber for walls or floors. Cut timbers that were stored at the kamaligs of Camaligan were hauled from
Mt. Tancong Vaca from the tierra communal
where Camaligan owns a titled portion up to now. These timbers were then cut
from there and hauled down river by the cortadors
(wood-cutters) and transported to Camaligan for storage at the many kamaligs that jutted its river banks.
According to this informant, while
he was the barangay captain (1984-1989), a barangay water system was
constructed in front of the Marupit
Elementary School . But,
when the electric motor that ran the water pump was stolen, the project was
abandoned. There is still an evidence of its distribution pipe located just in front
of the KBB center.
The property where the informant’s
house is located (Section 11, Lot 3) was declared under Fausto Cambaling, who
was the son of Eleno Cambaling, whose brother was Juan Cambaling, married to
Francisca Agong, the parents of Engracia Agong, this informant’s mother.

Lydia Enguero), Ramon (married to Paz Lagasca), Rosita (married to Deogracias
de la Rosa), Delia (married to Manuel Sayap), JUanito (married to Luz), Purita
