Juan M. Nieva, Lt. Governor, 1907-1916The following is the list of Governors and Representatives of Marinduque from 1898 to the present.This was published in Eli Obligacion blog, marinduquegov.blogspot.com
I found it very informative and interesting because it showed that Marinduque is not exempted from the Philippines' Political Dynasty Syndrome. Most of the old names sound very, very familiar to me even though I was not raised in Marinduque. But the two names that I have familial association with are the late Juan Nieva ( my wife's( Macrine) grand father) and the late Celso Preclaro ( Macrine's uncle) who was the governor in 1963-1967. Engineer Preclaro (from Santa Cruz) was the late husband of Macrine's aunt Tita Ponti Jambalos from Laylay. Tita Ponti is the older sister of Macrine's Dad, Bernardo Jambalos, Jr of Boac. I used to visit their residence in Sampaloc, Manila, while I was courting Macrine in mid 1950's. Here's the list that is still not complete according to Obligacion.
