History

Jose Dalman, formerly known as Ponot, was originally part of the municipality of Manukan.

The municipality was established by virtue of Batas Pambansa (BP) Blg. 15 approved on January 3, 1979, upon separation of seven barangays in southwestern part of Manukan, with Barangay Ponot the seat of government. [6] A plebiscite was held on April 3. [7]

It was renamed by virtue of BP Blg. 381 enacted on April 8, 1983, [8] [9] through the effort of former Assemblyman Guardson Lood.

It is named after Jose C. Dalman, one of the former students of the national hero Jose Rizal during his exile in Dapitan.
