Jamindan, Capiz
Kasadyahan sa Capiz as the town of Jamindan has been
under the rule of Spaniards for almost 3 centuries. The place got its name from
a tree called "Hamindang" which grow abundantly in the community.
This tree grows plentifully along the banks of the river during early days of
history.

Mambusao, west by the Province of Antique and on the south by the Municipality
of Tapaz.
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.
