This town named after Governor General Simon de Anda Y Salazar, was founded around the year 1858. As a part of the Zambales mission, its spiritual administration was taken care of by the Recollects up to the early years of the Philippines Revolution. From the outbreak of the Revolution up to 1931, the town had no resident priest. The spiritual life of the faithful was taken care of by the resident priest from Bolinao, who came to the town once a year.
