History

On January 1st of 1919, Executive Order No. 3 [8] from the Office of the Governor-General of the Philippine Islands, took effect marking the birth of the Municipality of Clarin in the Province of Bohol. It was signed by Acting Governor-General of the Philippine Islands, Charles E. Yeater.

Under Executive Order No. 3, s. 1919 [8] , Clarin was initially composed of the barrios/barangays of Canogon, Cumaang, Bonbon, Buangan, Tontunan, and Lajog from the Municipality of Tubigon, and the barrios/barangays of Nahawan, Obohan, and Canmaya from the Municipality of Inabanga. Barrio Canogon became its barrio Poblacion and the seat of the newly created town.

In the same year, Executive Order No. 3 [8] was amended on February 27, 1919, by Executive Order No. 22 [9] , which returned barrio/barangay Obohan to its former municipality in exchange for barrio/barangay Cantoyoc, while the rest remained unchanged. Additionally, a boundary line between the Municipalities of Clarin and Inabanga was established along the Nahawan River.

The Municipality of Clarin was named after Don Aniceto Clarín y Vélez, the first Civil Governor of Bohol.

Clarin was severely affected by the 20d13 Bohol earthquake which damaged 1,358 homes, of which 221 were totally destroyed, as well as the Catholic church. [10]
