Taft is one of the ancient people in Samar situated in the eastern coast which was called Tubabao or Tubabaw in early times. This town was originally named after the river called Malinaw, but since the river causes heavy floods during rainy season, people began calling the place Tubig, which means water in Waray-waray. It is bounded on the north by Northern Samar, on the east by the Philippine Sea, on the west by Western Samar, and on the south by the Leyte Gulf.

 Eastern Samar played important roles in the country’s history. On March 16, 1521, Ferdinand Magellan first set foot on Philippine soil in the island of Homonhon, on his way to rediscover the Philippines for the western world.  Earliest known chronicles reveal that further contact with western civilization, aside from the Magellan landing, occurred as early as 1596 when Jesuit missionaries worked their way from the western coast of the island of Samar and established mission centers in what is now the Eastern Samar territory. It is most probable that the populated existing settlements were created pueblos shortly after this time. The eastern part of the island was known as “ibabao” and distinct from Samar, which was the name of the western part. 

Ang Taft ang isa sa sinaunang tao sa Samar nakatirasa silangang baybayin kung saan ay tinatawag na Tubabao o o Tubabaw noong sinauna. Bayan na ito ay orihinal na pinangalanang matapos ang ilog na tinatawag Malinaw, ngunit dahil ang ilog nagiging sanhi mabigat baha sa panahon ng tag-ulan, ang mga tao ay nagsimulang pagtawag sa lugar Tubig, na nangangahulugan tubig sa Waray-waray. Ito ay bounded sa hilaga sa pamamagitan ng Northern Samar, sa silangan ng Dagat ng Pilipinas, sa kanluran ng Western Samar, at sa timugan ng Leyte Gulf. 

Eastern Samar ay may mahahalagang papel sa kasaysayan ng bansa. Noong Marso 16, 1521,  unang dumating si Ferdinand Magellan sa lupain ng Pilipinas sa isla ng Homonhon, sa kanyang paraan upang matuklasang muli ang Pilipinas para sa kanlurang mundo. Pinakamaagang kilalang salaysay ng ihayag na karagdagang kontact sa may western sibilisasyon, sa i-isang tabi muna mula ng pagdating ni Magellan, naganap kasing aga ng 1596 nong nagtrabaho si Jesuit bilang missionaries sa kanilang mga paraan mula sa kanlurang baybayin ng isla ng Samar at itinatag misyon sentro na ngayon ay teritoryo ng Eastern Samar. Ang silangang bahagi ng isla ay kilala bilang "ibabao" at naiiba mula sa Samar, na kung saan ay ang pangalan ng kanlurang bahagi.
