Our Agoncillo-Jalandoni-Magbanua-Ytuc Bloodlines
Crisologa Margarita Agoncillo y Jalandoni also known Andang Crising was born in Taal, Batangas. She was educated at Colegio de Santa Rose in Intramuros, Manila. Throughout her life, she did not want to be treated as special above the native Filipinos. She did not want to be called “Doña”.
Against, the will of her parents and with support from her maternal grandmother Margarita Susana Jalandoni y Magbanua, she accepted the love of Luis Marasigan y Mangondayao, the son of their tenants in Taal.
From Batangas, she was brought by her maternal grandmother to San Jose de Buenavista in Antique. Without the knowledge of her parents, Luis went first at the boat and stayed at the lower deck. She and Luis eloped at to San Jose de Buenavista in Antique. Their elopement caused a big issue of insult in the Agoncillo – Jalandoni household back in Taal.
Her maternal grandmother, as the widow of Francisco Javier Jaladoni, a pharmacist from Iloilo, helped Luis to be an educated man by sending him to school at San Jose de Buenavista.
Margarita Susana Jalandoni y Magbanua was also a victim of discrimination before and after she married Francisco Javier Jaladoni because she was an yndia.
After two years of staying in Iloilo, Andang Crising and her husband Andang Luis went back to Luzon as a couple with their first born daughter Sofia Catalina. They did not go back home to Batangas. They headed to Bulacan through the help of Juliana Gatmaitan who married Teofisto Magbanua, the nephew of Margarita Susana Jalandoni y Magbanua. Juliana Gatmaitan was her classmate at Colegio de Santa Rosa.
In Bulacan, Andang Luis and Andang Crising and their daughter stayed at the house of Juliana and Teofisto. Eventually, they bought the Gatmaitan land beside the Parish of San Santiago Apostol in Paombong where they had their first home in Bulacan. Up to now, this ancestral land is still found where the ancestral house of the Fr. Vicente Marasigan y Del Pilar, SJ is located. This ancestral house became the guest house as well of those visiting Spanish and Filipino officials, priests, students and yndios were welcomed too. No discrimination in this ancestral house.
Because of Andang Luis and Andang Crising, the Marasigan kin from Ibaan, Batangas went to and settled at Paombong, Bulacan. Presently, the Marasigan clan is one of the Top 10 biggest clans of Paombong that produced priests, public servants, doctors, researchers, teachers, engineers, nurses, religious, lawyers, businesspersons, artists and a lot more.
Andang Luis and Andang Crising were known as a wealthy business couple and generous philanthropists in their lifetime. They supported financially the Filipinos studied in Manila and even those illustrados who studied in Europe. For them, education would be of big help for emancipation from Spain.
One their close friend in Bulacan was Andang Blasa Gatmaitan – Del Pilar, the mother Marcelo H. Del Pilar. Because of the closeness of their families, Vicente Marasigan and Ana Del Pilar got married. They eventually became relatives.
Before Andang Luis and Andang Crising died, they bequeathed a huge amount of money for Filipinos to liberate the Philippines from the slavery of Span through studying in Europe and in Manila.
