Contribute your knowledge about the history of Gueguesangen
 
During the time of the native chieftain Casipit, there was a small body of water that cuts through the barrio.  This creek extended as far south as Sta. Barbara.  Water abundantly flowed through this creek that eventually each side of the bank eroded.  The native would say their place was “Gueguesangen na danum” meaning their place was being divided by the creek.  Thus Gueguesangen came to be the name of the barrio.
