Pintuyan was established in 1865. During the American regime, the seat of Pintuyan was moved to Pintuyan from San Ricardo, upon the election of Perfecto Vazquez as Municipal President. From then on, the residents of barrio San Ricardo petitioned for a separate municipality. This was made into fruition by virtue of Executive Order No. 194 on October 24, 1965, separating 16 eastern barrios from Pintuyan. [5]
