5. Santa Maria was founded as an independent town by the Franciscan Fray Francisco Dominguez Javier on November 26, 1793. He began constructing the church which was completed in the early 1800s by Fray Tomas Marti. The construction of the church was viewed as the foundation of the spiritual crusade in the said locality. Natives were converted into Christianity and more people began to inhabit the place. Civil affairs started to take shape and the appointment of the first Capitan del Barrio, Andres dela Cruz, paved the way for the permanent establishment of Poblacion , which was the seat of Spanish colonial government. People in those days were just renting their pieces of land. They paid their rents to the friars who were stationed in what is now known as Sta. Clara, a barangay where at present one can see the ruins of a big convento of friars. People from other nearby places such as Balagtas , Pandi , Santa Maria, and San Jose del Monte, paid their rents in this convento . Santa Maria at that time was then called "Santa Maria de Pandi ". The people acquired their lands after paying certain sum to the friars and the land became " Lupang Tagalog". There were 82 capitanes who served the Spanish colonial administration from 1793 to 1899.
