Regarding your query, the friars owned vast tracks of lands and this was one of the reasons for the many abuses and frictions with the Filipinos that time. Regarding specific details, I think you need to go to the UST archives/library and do research. I think, there is also a book on the friar estates but can't remember the title and who published it. If its not UST, try to look the publications of Ateneo. Hi,

I have read somewhere in the past they were acquired thru land grants by the order of the King of Spain. I am particularly interested about the holdings of the Dominicans in the area of Calamba, Binan, and Sta. Rosa which the Rizal family interacted as Tenants to the land held by the Dominicans. Why do you think Don Francisco and others claim the Friars could not show proof of ownership to the land they till? Also, after the revolution of 1898 and the take over the American Imperialists, what happened to these lands? Where the Dominicans able to retain ownership or was it confiscated by the government? I have heard that some these Friar lands were entrusted to American Coporations? I found one source pointing to a certain Andrew, last name not given, which the Dominicans entrusted their holdings. I am researching these to help the people of Canlubang, Laguna if the Yulo's did indeed have a land title for their Sugar Estate which apparently was bought from an American Trust (Ehrman). If so, where is the land title? Thanks for your time!
