Barangay Oya-oy is located between Barangay Agdum and Barangay Tigmarabo is San Jose Valley. It is three kilometers upriver from Barangay Banbanan and ten kilometers away from the municipality.
Named after Oya-oy river, it was composed of two sections in the past. Oya-oy Tacas and Oya-oy Ubos, headed by Lucio Monteclaro and Celedonio Montealto.
The first settlers were known only as Abing and Tana who came from Igbaras, and Candi and Oya of this town. The name Oya-oy originated from Oya, a farmer who planted camote as their means of livelihood.
