GUIWANON ( 1845 ) - Guiwanon is the oldest barangay in Maribojoc.
Guiwanon is a mountainous place located along the seacost of Maribojoc.
Fresh water is so scarce in this place. This barangay happened to
be called Guiwanon because of its source of drinking water.
According to the old folks living in this barangay, there was an
old man, the oldest during his time, who discovered their source
of drinking water. This water, according the old man, flows from
an underground spring called "Guiwan ". Although
the water from Guiwan is a little bit salty, people living in this
place used this water for drinking, for bathing and for washing
their clothes. The people called this barangay as Guiwanon where
they coined it from the old term " Guiwan " .
