History[]
The municipality of Quezon was created on 18 June 1961 from Solano by virtue of Republic Act No. 3427.[5] Based on the order assigned to the Commission on Elections, referred to as Case No. 405, dated 7 March 1963, the people of Quezon participated in the 12 November 1963 plebiscite and elected its Municipal District Mayor and Municipal District Members. Five years later, Quezon became a full-fledged municipality of Nueva Vizcaya. The original barangays that composed the municipality at that time of its creation were Baresbes, Caliat, Buliwao, Darubba, Maddiangat, and Nalubbanan. On 12 November 1967, Barangays Maasin, Calaocan, Bonifacio, Aurora and Runruno were created. The last barangay created was Brgy. Dagupan in 1979.
