Gitagum

The name of the municipality of Gitagum can be traced back to the time when the area was still a settlement for non-Christian natives. History says that these natives who got sick at that time called on a quack doctor to help them get well. This doctor treated them with leaves of a plant called the tagum-tagum which abundantly grows in the place. These leaves cured them of the illness and thus they named the town after the miraculous plant.

El Salvador City

During the Spanish time, a soldier named Alejandro Acusar sailed with his family from Bohol to Mindanao in pursuit for better living. From a distance while sailing, they sighted a place and decided to dock. They found the place to have abundant nipa huts, so they named the place Taganipa or Taguipa. Then, the small Acusar family had established themselves through farming and fishing.

From that time on, more Boholanos immigrated the place and established themselves through fishing and farming. Time came that hunger occurred in the entire province and it was only Tagnipa that had continuous crops of corn and vegetables and have served not only   the Tagnipa people but including those in neighboring areas. Because of such events that the people were saved from hunger, the people agreed to change the name to El Salvador – meaning the SAVIOUR.
