History
The native started to settle in this area, yet they never knew the name of their place. The male members of the group of families were known by their neighboring villagers as “hardworking”. Men were usually hired for labor or work without any salary or wages given, but in exchange, they were given goods for them to bring when they went home. During that time, the system of labor was called “Takay”. The place was popularly called as “lugar sang manugtakay”. However, so that it would be easy to be recalled, it was made shorter as “manugtakay” or simply called “Takay”, and lately the word spelled as “tacay”.
