Answer:
One can trace the history of Cadiz from the establishment of a traditional settlement in a place known as Cadiz Viejo, near the banks of Hilaton River. According to historical records, it was on 1861 when Spaniards came and named the settlement as Cadiz because of its northern location which reminded them of the seaport by the same name in Spain.
Cadiz became a municipality independent from Saravia (now E.B Magalona) in 1878. When the Spanish-American War broke up, people of Cadiz took part in the insurrection.
At the onset of American rule, Cadiz was on its way to prosperity with the operation of two lumber companies in the area. The war years brought a stop to all these economic activities and much suffering to the people of Cadiz. The resistance movement put up the civil government in the mountains to deal with civilian affairs.
On July 1967, Cadiz was inaugurated as a city by virtue of Republic Act No. 4894 which was passed by Congress on June 17, 1967.
