When the Americans established civil government on March 12, 1902, Lucena was designated
the new capital. The province of Tayabas also received territory from Laguna,
Nueva Ecija and Mindoro. The District of La Infanta was taken from Laguna and
the district of El Principe was taken out of Nueva Ecija and fused to Tayabas on

September 7, 1946, Tayabas was renamed Quezon Province.
