Jose “Boy” N. Arcangel Jr. led Jovellar for much of the last four decades: officer-in-charge after the 1986 revolution, elected mayor in 1988, again in 2001, and unopposed once more in 2022. Jorem L. Arcangel was mayor from 2010 until he was term-limited in 2019, served as vice mayor, and won the mayoralty back in 2025; Joseph L. Arcangel, a former council topnotcher, was the unopposed mayor from 2019 and sits on the council again after 2025. Jason L. Arcangel served on the 2022–2025 council and Sonny-Boy Arcangel placed tenth for eight council seats in 2025. Readers report that the four are Jose’s sons; their shared middle initial fits, but no published source states it. Readers also name Jorem’s son Tristan Elliot as barangay-league president and a cousin, Cecilia Arcangel, as a barangay captain; neither office could be confirmed, so neither is shown.
