First published attempt at writing town history

The "Bayambang @ 400 Years" fiesta souvenir program (2014) is a special publication, as far as this town is concerned, because it contains a most valuable timeline summarizing the most significant milestones in the history of Bayambang.

Reportedly, there have been much earlier attempts to write the history of Bayambang, but these failed for unfortunate reasons. ____ Santos' research materials were destroyed by flood, while Atty. ____ Matabang's untimely demise also ended the other attempt.

With "Bayambang @ 400 Years," there is at least a timeline with which future historians can restart the herculean task.
