Long time ago, most places have no name. The people just group themselves and built their homes near the far, that they worked. When the Spaniards came to this place, which is now called Barangay Cabunotan, they asked a group of people if what is the name of the place. Since the question was a Spanish language the people cannot understand what was the question all about. But some of them answered "bunot", since they thought that the Spaniards asked what is the name of the tree that make bunot out of it. Considering that there are many of this in the place, the place then was called Cabunotan.
The main occupation of the people of the barangay is farming. No wonder that this place is surrounded by rice fields. This barangay is now so progressive compare to other barangays sincere there is no electricity but the residents are peace loving people.
