In the year 1947, a group of individuals from DAO, ANTIQUE; Mateo Palayon, Dioscoro Pahotahog, Santiago Tamondez, and Leopoldo Aleon came to own a lot.

After which, they divided it among themselves claiming four hectares for each family. Majority of the first settlers came from Casay, Anini-y, Dao Antique which led them for naming the place New Casay because they considered the place a new community for them to establish. The commencement of the survey in that place took place on 1969. The survey of the Barangay site and the farm lot were done on April 20, 1971. In 1970 Mr. Melchor Avellon was appointed to be the Sitio Leader by Mr. Braulio Dujali-Brgy. Captain together with his councilors; Mr. Ramon Rodulfa, Bernabe Moquerio, Alfonso Gonzaga, Oscar Tamondez, Loreto Mendio and Florencio Gomez.. Using shovel during Bayanihan System they started to develop the said Sitio by creating a small road going to the reserved lot where a school will rise. The school was officially opened on 1977 with two classrooms built in a chopped Anahaw wood, which served as wall and Cogon for the roof. It was started with only 40 students waiting for a teacher from the Department of Education Culture and Sports. To teach them, there were five volunteer-teachers living nearby; Mr. Ramon T. Rodulfa, Alicia M. Moquerio, Conception Gomez, Ernesto Q. Tamondez and Esther Q. Moquerio.
