Biographical
Anastacio Atig Omandam was born on April 19, 1890 in Plaridel, Occidental Province in Northern Mindanao, Philippines. Records indicate that Omandam had a fifth-grade level education. The exact date of his departure from the Philippines remains unclear. However, according to a passenger and crew list, Omandam was aboard the S. S. Nippon Maru which arrived in Honolulu, Hawai'i on January 5, 1916. Omandam was potentially seeking employment with the Hawaiian Sugar Plantation Association. The 1920 United States census provided documentation of Omandam's residence in San Joaquin, California where he worked as a laborer on general farms. In 1940, Omandam was employed as a field worker for the Sequera Brothers Union Isle. His World War II draft registration card, dated 1942, recorded his residence as Daguhoy Lodge at 203 East Hazelton Avenue, indicating his membership in the Legionario del Trabajo Daguhoy Lodge Number 528. Little is known about Omandam's family, except that he had two siblings named Alfonso and Marcosa. According to a Philippines Select Marriage record, Omandam married Luisa Suminguit and they had a daughter named Magdalena Omandam. Omandam passed away on October 20, 1966, in Stockton, California, and was laid to rest in at Park View Cemetery. *Conflicting birth dates: United States World War II Draft Registration Card, January 14, 1894.
