Notes
  • Notes - Photo shows the Cathedral of Saint Gregory in Albay, with the municipal building on the left. The cathedral started as a wooden chapel built by early Spanish missionaries who moved into the town in the 1580s. It was damaged by American bombers and reconstruction went beyond 1951. Then Albay was made an Episcopal See of the Diocese of Legaspi, elevating the church to become a cathedral. (Source: Philippine Churches, NMPC Manila, 1980)
