 TriniView.com - A Brief History of Guayaguayare
Guayaguayare, the first part of Trinidad and Tobago to have experienced the beginning of a new colonial era with the entry of Christopher Columbus on July 31, 1498, is ironically the last village of the twin-island state.
Guayaguayare was first inhabited by the Amerindians who had become extinct in this region by the time the French had arrived in the 1780's.
In 1870, oil was discovered by a huntsman in the Guayaguayare forest and a report on the finding went to London, but nothing became of this until 1893 when a Canadian merchant, Randolph Rust, with the backing of the Oil Exploration Syndicate of Canada took advantage of the findings in 1901.

With the abolition of slavery, the agriculture industry went into decline and so did the whole region, until the late 1800s when crops like cocoa and coconuts revived the industry and the Point Fortin area.
More changes were to come, however - in 1906, a geologist, Arthur Beeby-Thompson, found oil at Guayaguayare and the rest, as they say, is history.
It rode the wave of opulence during the 1990's oil boom and withstood the economic ravages of the subsequent recession.
