            In the year 1744, Jamindan was made a Municipal District by then Governor Don Juaquin Dominguez. He then appointed Abao Dungon the native chieftain as the first Captain. Many distinguished leaders were reappointed after Dungon, but the most popular of them all was Kapitan Manuel Orocio who during his reign paived the way in making Jamindan into a municipality in the year 1804. 
            A church made of stone was built in Jamindan under the supervision of the first spanish priest by the name of Father Tomas Palmis in the year 1882. It was said that the first image of the patron saint, San Sebastian came all the way from Spain through the port of Batan. During that time the patron saint was fetch from Batan to Jamindan via long procession of converts and devotees. Since then, every 20th day of January, the feats in honor of the patron saint has been traditionally observed and celebrated. Jamindan became the haven of philippine forces retreating from the Americans during the Philippine-American war. Among the Filipino soldiers who took refuge in Jamindan were Generals Ananians Diokno, Arce, Mariangan and Dulce. The hospitality of the natives enjoyed by Diokno, however, it was during the American regime that marks the gradual changes in the attitude of the people to seek and clamor for progress. A macadam type of road was constructed linking Jamindan to other municipalities and eventually to the provincial capital of Capiz with that clamor from the people. Transportation was then made easy and education among youths was made possible.
