Other Ibaloi families who once occupied portions of Baguio which is now known as the Central Business District were the Sepic families of Belshang, the Daroan families, the Sungchuan families, and others. The Sepic clan include the Zarates who once owned the place where the Bermuda Subdivision now is, the Quinios where the Pacday Quinio Elementary School now stands, the Saguids and the Nabuses.
The Daroan family included the late
Eugene Pucay who was once a member of the Baguio City Council.
These were besides the members of
the Apulog Minse and Padya Clan, and the Apsan Carantes Family. As earlier stated, the Apulog and Padya
family included the Enrique Ortega or Dangbis family, the Pinaoan Baticalang
and Picnay Apulog family, the Badjating and Tadaha or Talaca family, the Wakat Swildjo or Suello family, and
others.
The late Mateo Carino married the daughter of Enrique Ortega or Dangbis named Bayosa or Sa’bot. He was also a descendant of the (Am)kidit from whom his wife Bayosa descended.
When the Americans came and started getting applications for registration of the lands of the natives which they or their predecessors owned, the late Mateo Carino for himself and his children filed applications for the registration of the lands within the Township of Baguio. (To be continued).
