Other Notes: 

1.Nobody answered the door despite several attempts of knocking and “calling” to get the residents’ attention. Found out later that Mang Tomas, the owner was a very old man aged at least 90 years old. His children were not around to answer questions so an old resident right across the street was interviewed but could not provide significant information. 2.Based on the key informant’s information, assuming that Mang Tomas was born in 1919 when his parents were 20 and they built the house at the age of 30.
