QUIMMARAYAN

 

        It is situated at the eastern part of the Poblacion, regarded as an ‘interior’ barangay of Bantay with a voting population of 283 and about 600 total population.  It is bounded on the North by Brgys. Cabusligan, Sagneb and partly by Sto. Domingo, on the South by Brgy. An-annam, on the West by Brgy. Malingeb and Cabusligan, and on the East by Brgy. Sagneb and An-annam.

 

        Despite its hilly topography, the main occupation of the people is farming, followed by carpentry, weaving, poultry and cattle raising and other medium scale businesses.  Its patron saint is Nuestra Senora de la Caridad.

 

        According to old stories, it got its name because a large part of the area is easily submerged in water during rainy season. The ilocano slang for a flooded rice field looking similar to a swamp, is ‘karayan’ or ‘kinarayanan’ (a marsh riverbed), thus, evolved the name Quimmarayan.
