Blurred (Cordon, Isabela)
In 1855, the province of Isabela was carved from Cagayan and Nueva Vizcaya through a decree of the Spanish King. It was named in honor of his majesty’s wife the Queen.
Isabela means many things to our family’s history. Before the war, Lolo Porong moved to Santiago upon the invitation of Lola Senang’s relatives. Auntie Loleng and later viuda de Salatan, and our father were born there in the barrio of Agbannawag. Another branch of the family, Jacinto and Virata, eventually migrated to Isabela leaving our Inang Baket in Almaguer. Their daughters Pastora and Tinang settled in Roxas and their only son Ricky in a place called Mabalag. Blogged at The Queen’s Province in "Shooting Churches, Eating Noodles".
