History

Reina Mercedes was founded in 1743 as the settlement of Abbag, which means on the other side (of the Magat River), before then being renamed to Calering, and Calanusian (from canusi, a species of white ebony).[5]. The town was finally renamed in honor of Queen Mercedes of Orléans, the first consort of Alfonso XII, who died of tuberculosis on June 26, 1878, in the fourth year of Alfonso's reign. When the town was partitioned from Cauayan on January 20, 1886, the priest Pedro Jiménez named it after the late queen.[6] Prior to this,
