CREATION OF THE MUNICIPALITY

The local people, headed by Forester Fortunato A. Avellano, had initiated the move for the creation of the Municipality of General Nakar through a petition paper. Such endeavor was realized, with the help of the late Congressman Fortunato Suarez and the late Governor Santayana of Quezon, when Executive Order No. 246 was signed by His Excellency, the late President Elpidio Quirino on 21 July 1949. The new town was curved out from Infanta, Quezon, which was its mother municipality then called “Distrito Pelagio” and was named in honor of the late Guillermo P. Nakar, a hero of World War II and a native of Barangay Anoling.
