HISTORICAL BACKGROUND OF SALVACION, SAGUDAY, QUIRINO
Before the Japanese, invaded the Philippines, some industrious men with families are from Pangasinan settled in the place where they developed and made their lives progressive in where later on they name it was “Namalaybayan”, still part of Santiago, Isabela.

During the Japanese occupation in 1942, many people where lived in Namalaybalay suffered tremendously from the hands of Japanese especially to those who stay far from the center. The Japanese were forcing the people to attend meeting at night walking with only leaves of “Abiang” used as light the darkness. Because of poverty and hardship encountered by the populace in the hands of the Japanese army that even cause the deaths of some residents and one Barrio Lt. Simplicio Africano. The old folks conducted series of meeting headed by Mr. Modesto Sabado, and his companions namely Mr. Felipe Miana, Euvegildo Marigsa, Mr. Teofilo Soriano, Mr. Simplicio Tolbe, Mr. Genaro Briones, Mr. Jose Flores, Mr. Jacinto Espinosa, Mr. Pantaleon Sanchez, Mr. Teodoro Dooc and including the younger ones.

One of their meeting, they wanted to change the name of the barrio and it was Mr. Modesto Sabado who suggested the name “SALVACION” basing it to their actual situation, that they really needs Salvacion which means to save the lives of the residents, it was amended and ratified by all.
