History
The municipality of San Miguel De Mayumo was established in 1763 with Carlos Agustin Maniquiz, Maria Juana Puno - wife of Carlos Agustin Maniquiz and Miguel Pineda as the first town mayor of San Miguel. Miguel Pineda was a native of Angat who decided to settle permanently in the Barrio of San Bartolome now named Barangay Tartaro. He found the place ideal for hunting and was later chosen as the leader of other settlers. He formed an alliance with Mariano Puno, the recognized leader of the adjacent prosperous village called Sto. Rosario now named Barangay Mandile. The two leaders decided to form a town named Miguel De Mayumo after the name of Miguel Pineda and mayumo, a Kapampangan word for sweets for the goodwill and generosity of Mariano Puno. The town was supposed to be part of Pampanga. San Miguel’s culture drifted from Kapampangan influence. San Miguel used to be the biggest town in Bulacan but when San Ildefonso was proclaimed a town during the 1900s and during the Marcos regime, he made Dona Remedios Trinidad a town (named after his wife's mother), San Miguel was right as the 2nd.
There is a story attached to the timely discovery of a stone image of an archangel when the town was in abundance and the inhabitants wish to change the name of the town. A council was formed for this purpose and in the midst of a meeting; a man rushes forward to report a discovery of a stone image of an angel in one of the Madlum Caves. The council deemed it befitting to name the town after the angel. The discovered stone image was of San Miguel De Arkanghel. The people believed it to be a Divine Almighty sign of good graces. The council decided in reverence and homage to the angel to add the word “San” and retain the original name of the town Miguel De Mayumo to San Miguel De Mayumo. The official name of the town at present is Municipality of San Miguel.
The Pact of Biak-Na-Bato
Main article: Pact of Biak-na-BatoDuring the revolution in 1897, newly appointed Governor-General Fernando Primo de Rivera decided to crush Emilio Aguinaldo and his troops in Cavite, but Aguinaldo fled to Batangas and joined forces with Gen. Miguel Malvar. The Spaniards continue their pursuit but the troops outwitted them by going to the province of Rizal (formerly Morong) & finally to Biak na Bato in San Miguel de Mayumo, Bulacan. Aguinaldo made the mountain caves into his headquarters while Primo de Rivera quoted, "Biak na Bato will fall into my hands...but I cannot promise to dissolve the Revolution." Emilio Aguinaldo established the first constitutional government in the Philippines.
Pedro A. Paterno, a Filipino who studied in Spain, presented himself to the Governor-General & told them he would like to help them by negotiating a peace treaty with the revolutionaries, and Rivera agreed. Paterno right Manila on August 4 but was halted by Gen. Paciano Rizal, who was against the treaty and said he would rather be thrown into a pit lined with bolos & sharp lances, but in the end, he agreed & had Paterno escorted to Biak na Bato. Paterno arrive on August 9 but did not reach his goal so he had to come back three more times during the negotiations. Aguinaldo commanded reforms & truce up to September 1900. he also told Paterno to consult with the other revolutionary leaders.
Paterno kept on going back and forth to Manila and Biak na Bato until the two sides made a negotiation. After two weeks Primo de Rivera signed the Pact of Biak na bato in Malacanang without Aguinaldo, for Aguinaldo felt he might get arrested so he choose Paterno to be his representative to sign the treaty. The treaty was signed on December 14 to 15,1897.

The Siege of Baler
The Revolutionary Colonel of 'The Siege of Baler' - Siege of Baler: Simon O. Tecson [1861-1903].
Simon Ocampo Tecson was born on February 5, 1861 in San Miguel de Mayumo now called San Miguel, Bulacan to parents Tiburcio Tecson and Paula Ocampo. He was the second child among four siblings. Simon O. Tecson married Tomasa Mossesgeld Santiago.
Like thousands of other Filipinos desiring independence from Spain, Simon O. Tecson joined the Katipunan when he found himself one time in Manila. When the Revolution broke out, he joined the fighting in Bulacan. In June 1897, he was appointed Brigadier-General of Bulacan at the Mt. Puray Assembly. From Cavite, General Emilio Aguinaldo transferred the revolutionary government to Biak-na-Bato, a barrio of San Miguel de Mayumo. On November 1, 1897, Isabelo Artacho and Felix Ferrer wrote a constitution for this Biak-na-Bato Republic. Simon O. Tecson who at this time had become close to Aguinaldo, was chosen to be one of the signatories of the Constitution during the ratification of the Philippine Constitution.
Towards the end of 1897, a truce in the fighting was agreed upon by both Spaniards and Filipinos. Aguinaldo agreed to go on voluntary exile to Hong Kong together with some of his friends and allies. However, Simon O. Tecson did not join Emilio Aguinaldo in Hong Kong. When Emilio Aguinaldo returned to the Philippines in May 1898, Simon O. Tecson offered his services to Emilio Aguinaldo’s revolutionary army. Emilio Aguinaldo gave Simon O. Tecson the rank of Colonel and appointed him second in command of the 4th zone comprising the towns of San Rafael, San Miguel and San Ildefonso, Bulacan. Maintaining the peace and order of Bulacan as well as the province of Nueva Ecija became his major task.
However, Simon O. Tecson would be most remembered for the event that would be later on called 'The Siege of Baler' - Siege of Baler.
Baler, Aurora is a small town located on the eastern coast of Luzon, part of the jurisdiction of the District of El Principe. In June of 1898, the Spanish forces holding Baler continued to resist whereas most of the other towns had already surrendered to Emilio Aguinaldo’s forces. Captain Enrique de las Morenas was in charge of the defense of Baler. For fear of attack, he ordered his men to seek refuge inside the church of Baler on June 27, 1898. Providing themselves with arms, ammunition and food, the Spaniards turned the church into a formidable fortress.
The end of 'The Siege of Baler' occurred on June 2, 1899. The Spaniards went outside of the church to negotiate the terms of surrender. Representing Emilio Aguinaldo and the newly established Philippine Republic was Revolutionary Colonel Simon O. Tecson who negotiated that the Spanish troops would not be treated as prisoners of war. With the terms of surrender completed, the rest of the Spanish troops marched out of the church with their weapons while Filipino troops lined up the pathway. Out of the more than 50 soldiers who sought refuge in the church of Baler before the siege, only 35 survived.
'The Siege of Baler' represents the culmination of the more than three hundred-year hostility between Philippines - Filipinos and Spaniards - Spain. It ended in forgiveness and reconciliation. This event is made even more memorable through the passage of Republic Act No. 9187 on February 5, 2003 calling for the celebration of Philippine-Spanish Friendship Day every June 30. The historic 'The Siege of Baler' honors the Filipino and Spanish heroes who fought and died for their principles.
Simon O. Tecson fought in the Philippine-American War. He surrendered to the Americans on February 12, 1901 in San Miguel de Mayumo. He refused to take the oath of allegiance to the United States of America resulting in his deportation to Guam on June 16, 1901. When a general amnesty was offered to all Filipino insurgents on July 4, 1902, Simon O. Tecson was one of those who availed of this opportunity. On September 21, 1902, Simon O. Tecson took his oath of allegiance and was allowed to return to the Philippines.
He died on November 15, 1903 at the age of 43 in his beloved hometown of San Miguel de Mayumo.
