NINING
Barangay Nining is considered as the southern gateway of San Nicolas. It is the entry point of the municipality from Region II thru Natividad and San Quintin Towns. It is situated about 3 ½ kilometers away south of the town proper and a kilometer away from the town proper of Natividad.
According to old folks, Nining was originally a sitio of Barrio San Jose. Nining was the “left over” of the barrio when part of San Jose was taken away from San Nicolas to form the municipality of Natividad in 1902. The creation of Natividad as a separate municipality led to the delineation of the boundaries between the two adjacent towns. The creek passing across the barangay became the boundary and north of the creek became Nining of San Nicolas, while the portion across the south of the creek became Nining of Natividad.
Early settlers in Nining came from the western part of the province and from the Ilocos provinces. However, there was no existing historical record to show how Barangay Nining got its name. Even old folks were not aware on how the word Nining became the name of the place.
The creation of barangays by the PACD in the early 60’s led to the creation of Nining as a separate barangay from Barangay San Jose.It is bounded on the south by the Municipality of Natividad; on the north by Barangay Siblot; on the east by Barangay Cabitnongan’ and on the west by Barangay San Jose. The place is a flourishing agricultural community being endowed by nature with rich farm produce like palay, corn, tobacco, mongo and vegetables. Livestock-raising is another source of income.
Prominent families in the barangay are the Ubera, Arellaga, Apigo and Aquino among others.
