| General Note |
- General note - Tigbauan used to have one of the largest convents in the entire Panay island until liberation in 1945 and the 1948 earthquake leveled it to the ground. Photo shows the ruins with a few blocks of yellow sandstone and red brick tiles still intact. The stone convent built in 1867 by Fr. Florencio Martin was an enlargement of a smaller convent of inferior Materials (wood on stone foundation). The Jesuits founded the first boarding school in the country in the country of Tigbauan shortly after their arrival in February 1593. Fathers Pedro Chirino and Francisco Martin were sent there from Cebu upon the request of the encomendero, Rodriguez de Fegueroa. The Jesuits left the parish on April 25, 1595. (also see CH00627) YYY
