3. HISTORY OF BARANGAY PALINA EAST
The Barangay PALINA (which was called barrio before) in Urdaneta City,
Pangasinan, Philippines got its name from what the first settlers is the ORTIZ
FAMILY in said barrio, found in the place where they settled. In the place where
the first settlers settled, they found a spring with clear water which they got
their drinking water and they used to say Ilocano "APAN TAYO MANGALA TI
INUMEN TAYO A DANOM IDIAY NALINAC NGA UBBOG"- which means - Let us go
get our drinking water from the spring with clear water. And so they used to
say in short "AGPA LINAC TAYO" and agpa linac was shortened to the word
"PALINA".
