Vicente S. Urgello was born in Carcar, Cebu[1] to parents Francisco Basa Urgello and Telesfora Canarias Sarmiento on April 22, 1875. He became a lawyer on October 7, 1907 and owned big real estate properties in Cebu City. The street that was named after him used to be his private property and was previously known as Private Road.[2]
CareerEdit
He practiced law and was considered a prominent lawyer in his time.
His political career began when Filemon Sotto resigned from his position as Congressman of the 3rd district and ran for a seat in the Senate. A special congressional election was held and Urgello was elected to finish Sotto's term in the 3rd Philippine Legislature.[2] Urgello would be reelected for another term in 1916 and again in 1919. He served as Congressman until 1922.[3]
On October 2, 1939, then President Manuel L. Quezon appointed him as member of the Board of Tax Appeals for Cebu City.[4][5]
He died on May 3, 1952.
Historical commemorationEdit
