Santa Fe is a fifth class municipality in the province of Romblon, Philippines. ==History== Legend says that the barrio was named after a beautiful, lovely daughter of one of its early settlers of the place. She was so loved and revered by the locals that they named her ''Santa Fe'', and in her death, they named the place after her. However, in ''Relacion de las Yslas Filipinas'' by Spanish conquistador Miguel de Loarca, it states that the barrio was named after Santa Fe in the province of Granada in Spain. Its first settlers were Onhan-speaking Negritos from Panay Island who emigrated to Tablas as early as 1730.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=History of Santa Fe, Romblon )〕 During the Spanish colonial period, Santa Fe was a barrio of neighboring Looc town until 1855 when it was established as a separate ''pueblo'' or town. It was abolished and reverted into a barrio again in 1868. In 1892, the Spaniards restored Santa Fe's municipal status, which would remain until the American colonial period.〔 Santa Fe was one 11 municipalities created in Romblon when civilian government was established in the province. However, on 10 March 1917, it was abolished and reverted once more into a barrio of Looc. On 8 January 1940, by virtue of Commonwealth Act No. 581, authored by Romblon congressman Leonardo Festin, the municipality of Looc was abolished and incorporated into a new special municipality called Tablas. Hence, Santa Fe became a barrio of this special municipality.〔〔 On 1 October 1946, by virtue of Republic Act No. 38 authored by Romblon congressman Modesto Formilleza, the special municipality of Tablas was abolished and Looc municipality was reinstated. The law also created Santa Fe into an independent municipality. Santa Fe is also the home of Pinoy Big Brother Season 1 Big Winner Nene Tamayo. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Santa Fe, Romblon」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
