See also: Batangas. Historically, San Pascual was a part of Bauan and was originally referred to as "Lagnas." The name "Lagnas", which refers to the municipality's location physically between the Lagnas and Hagonoy Rivers, is derived from the local dialect and means "river boundaries."
San Pascual became a separate municipality in 1969 by virtue of Republic Act No. 6116. It initially consisted of 25 barrios, all carved out from Bauan, namely: San Pascual, Danglayan, San Antonio, Laurel, Bayanan, San Mateo, Banaba, Natunuan North, Natunuan South, Kaing-in, Santo Niño, Sambat, Palsahingin, Alalum, Santa Elena, Del Pilar, Malaking Pook, Pila, San Mariano, Pook ni Banal, Pook ng Kapitan, Mataas na Lupa, Ilat, Gelerang Cawayan (Gelerang Kawayan), and Resplando.[1]
The religious populace and congregation therefore changed the name of the Lagnas neighborhood to San Pascual De Baylon in honor of the Roman Catholic saint. It was thought that naming a location after one of its patron saints would bring luck and a prosperous future. As a result, somewhere around 1959, the San Pascual neighborhood became the Parish of San Pascual de Baylon, with the aforementioned saint serving as its Patron Saint.
