'''Jones''', officially the '''Municipality of Jones''' ({{langx|ilo|Ili ti Jones}}; {{langx|tl|Bayan ng Jones}}), is a [[municipality of the Philippines|municipality]] in the [[Philippine Province|province]] of [[Isabela (province)|Isabela]], [[Philippines]]. According to the {{PH wikidata|population_as_of}}, it has a population of {{PH wikidata|population_total}} people.{{PH wikidata|population_reference}}

==Etymology== The town derived its named in honor of [[William Atkinson Jones]], an American legislator who authored the [[Jones Law (Philippines)|Philippine Autonomy Act of 1916]]. The town was inaugurated on January 1, 1921. It was initially divided into 21 barrios with virgin forests and wide fertile plains, with Cabanuangan serving as the Municipal Government's seat.<ref name="FoundationDate">{{Cite web |title=Brief History of Jones |url=https://jones-isabela.gov.ph/history/ |access-date=June 25, 2024 |website=Municipality of Jones - jones-isabela.gov.ph}}</ref>

==History== {{unreferenced section|date=January 2014}} The southern portion of [[Echague, Isabela|Echague]] separated by the [[Cagayan River]] was created into a municipality named Jones in honor of an American Legislator, [[William Atkinson Jones]], who authored the [[Jones Law (Philippines)|Philippine Autonomy Act of 1916]], and was inaugurated on January 1, 1921. It was originally composed of 21 barrios of virgin forests and wide fertile plains with Cabanuangan as the seat of the municipal government.<ref name="FoundationDate" />

The house of one Tirso Mateo served as the first town hall, with the following as the first municipal officials: President - Don Antonio Vallejo; Vice President - Benito Tiburcio; Secretary - Francisco Gumpal; Treasurer - Pio Tomines; Justice of Peace - Daniel Apostol; Chief of Police - Zoilo Gadingan; and Modesto Payuyo, Antonio Pintang, Gregorio Santos, Dionicio Cristobal, Valentin Torio, and Damaso Leano as councilors.

The first proposed townsite of Jones was in barrio Daligan, but due to the insistence of the municipal president Don Antonio Vallejo who voluntarily donated two hectares of land for the municipal hall and public market site, he also later donated the vast fertile land area of Jones Rural School and Jones North Central School.

Transportation was then a big problem as there were no good roads, the barrios being connected only by narrow roads and trails suited for hiking, for horses and carabaos, and for sleds and carts. During rainy days, these roads and trails easily turned into knee-deep mud fit only for wallowing carabaos. The principal means of transportation was the Cagayan River passing through almost all the barrios, using raft and boats. It was only after decades that motor vehicles began to ply between Jones and nearby Echague.

The vast virgin forests and fertile soil of the place were populated and harnessed and cultivated by the indigenous Pugots ([[Aeta]]s) and Ilongots ([[Bugkalot]]s), and the [[Yogad]]s who are natives of southern Isabela, particularly the towns of Echague, [[Angadanan]] and [[San Guillermo]], and the enterprising Ilocanos who migrated overland for a couple of centuries all the way from the Ilocos region in northwestern Luzon. Other ethnic groups followed like the Gaddangs, Ifugaos and Ibanags, and later, the Tagalogs from Central Luzon.

The [[Aglipayan Church]] (Philippine Independent Church) was the first established church in the area, followed later by the Roman Catholic Church and various Protestant denominations. There were very few primary schools, all hinged to an intermediate school called Jones Farm School at the poblacion. The early inhabitants concentrated on agriculture with tobacco, corn and peanuts as primary crops. Revenue principally came from the real property tax, cedula tax and sled tax. The town was then greatly dependent on national aid.

When the [[Japanese Imperial Army]] invaded the Philippines in 1941, Jones became a shelter for the national and provincial officials and for evacuees from other places until 1942. The town likewise became the seat of the provincial government from 1941 to 1943. It was subsequently occupied by the Japanese forces, but its forested areas continued to be a stronghold of Filipino guerillas and American soldiers who for a while were under the command of Brigadier General [[Guillermo Nakar]].

In 1945, Filipino troops of the 11th Infantry Regiment, [[Philippine Commonwealth Army]], [[USAFIP-NL]] are liberated and recaptured Jones from the Japanese forces. The liberating forces united the scattered guerrilla units who helped in attacking and defeating Japanese forces toward the end of the war.

Jones was the home of Silvino M. Gumpal who led Isabela as governor from 1946 to 1951; earlier, Gumpal represented Isabela in Congress from 1934 to 1935.

In 1959, the name of barrio Mangaratungot was changed to San Vicente.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://lawph.com/statutes/ra2099.html|title=R.A.

There was originally a population of [[Agta]] [Pugot/Aeta] living in the vicinity of Jones, along the Dicamay River. The Agta are one of the many groups known as '[[Negritos]]' and who are descended from the pre-Austronesian population of the islands. The Dicamay Agta, who combined hunter-gathering with swidden agriculture, have been severely impacted by the influx of other ethnic groups who took up hillside and farm lands, resulting in there being no Agta living in the area today. There are numerous reports of the Agta having been driven off their lands, and in some cases of having been killed by immigrant groups of farmers.<ref>{{cite book|last1=Lobel|first1=Jason William|title=PHILIPPINE AND NORTH BORNEAN LANGUAGES: ISSUES IN DESCRIPTION, SUBGROUPING, AND RECONSTRUCTION|date=2013|publisher=University of Hawai'i at Manoa|pages=96–99|url=http://www.ling.hawaii.edu/graduate/Dissertations/JasonLobelFinal.pdf|access-date=12 January 2015}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|last1=Headland|first1=Thomas|title=Controversies: Agta human rights violations|url=http://www-01.sil.org/~headlandt/agta.htm|access-date=12 January 2015}}</ref>

== Culture == ;Pinilisa Festival

The Pinilisa Festival is an acknowledgment of the culture of Jonesians and celebrated every March 17 to rejoice over the bountiful harvests of Pinilisa, a unique organic plum-colored rice known not only in the region but also in other countries, due to its unique fragrance and flavor compared to ordinary rice. Unlike other varieties that rely on synthetic commercial fertilizer to grow healthy, this rare rice variety can thrive on rainwater and the rich alluvial soil in the area. Its gustatory features make it a favorite staple food and primary ingredient for native rice cakes and other products.

The success of the first Pinilisa Festival was conceptualized by the initiative of the administration of Florante A. Raspado, its first festival director-general. The festival was easily produced and marked the history of the town of Jones and one among the line-up of the '''Department of Tourism Wow! Philippines Program''', making Pinilisa Festival is recognized not only in the Philippines but as well as on the world. The famous product “Pinilsa Rice” of Jones has given birth to the now famous Pinilisa Festival of Jones and is now identified and included in the list and calendar of the famous festival in the country maintained and documented by the Department of Tourism. Tourism Regional Director Blessida G. Diwa is among the patrons of the Pinilisa Festival, showing consistent support for the promotion of the Festival.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.lets-go-philippines.com/the-first-famous-pinilisa-festival-jones-isabela/|title=The First Famous Pinilisa Festival – Jones, Isabela|date=3 August 2013}}</ref>
