History
The town used to be called the barrio of Macapagao and then much later it was referred to as Abunan. The yearly founding anniversary of the town is called Abunan Festival in honor of its former name.
The Roman Catholic Church erected a chapel under the patronage of St. Isidore, the patron saint of farmers. When the town was organized through Republic Act No. 5662 on June 21, 1969, the barrio where the seat of government was assigned was already called San Isidro. The jurisdiction of the newly established town included territories from nearby municipalities of Catigbian, Antequera, Calape, and Tubigon.
The church became a parish in 1970.
