Veruela is considered the oldest town of upper Agusan del Sur. It was believed the name "Veruela" was derived from the word "virus", as the entire area was suffering from smallpox and cholera in the late 18th century when the Spanish missionaries encountered the tribe. From then on, the name ''Veruela'' existed out of the Spanish word ''La Verus''.<ref name="AgusandelSurGovPH-Veruela">{{cite web|title=Municipality of Veruela|url=http://agusandelsur.gov.ph/index/governance/2011-11-17-16-33-48/2011-08-15-05-52-42/veruela|website=Province of Agusan del Sur|publisher=Provincial Information Management Office (PIMO)|accessdate=19 October 2016|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20130509215046/http://agusandelsur.gov.ph/index/governance/2011-11-17-16-33-48/2011-08-15-05-52-42/veruela|archivedate=9 May 2013}}</ref>

In the 18th century, the Muslim tribes in Davao invaded the Manobos in Agusan. The Manobos fought against the Muslims. The first known leader of the inhabitants was Eladio Manguyod, a strong and influential ''datu'' of the Manobo tribe, who led his people to victory after a hard fought battle that drove the Muslims out of Agusan. It was also during those times when the tribe was converted into Christianity. The inhabitants owed their victories to Datu Manguyod as well as their patron, Saint John.<ref name="AgusandelSurGovPH-Veruela" />

The Manobo later moved to Manning, also known as Linongsuran, along the Agusan River. In 1916, an earthquake destroyed the settlement, forcing the survivors to evacuate and reorganize themselves into another place, now the barangay poblacion of the municipality.[5]

In the 18th century, Muslim tribes in Davao invaded the Manobos in Agusan, and the two sides fought. The first known leader of the Manobo was the datu Eladio Manguyod, who drove the Muslims out after a hard-fought battle. During this period, the tribe converted to Christianity and adopted Saint John as their patron.[5]

Veruela became a municipality through Executive Order No. 147, which was proclaimed by President Diosdado Macapagal on March 31, 1965[6] during the term of Congressman Guillermo Sanchez, who once also served as mayor of the town. Since its formal creation as a municipality, Veruela has seen eight different administrations.
