History.
Between 1877 and 1887, José Fernandes Vergara, of whom the city is named after, bought from his sister-in-law Luisa Ignacia Saravia the fields intended for the founding of the town. At the time, it was known as Parao, since it was on the right bank of the Arroyo Parao. In April 1891, after surveyor Manuel Coronel divided the land, Vergara made the first sales.
Between 1890 and 1900, immigrants from different European countries began to arrive in the area, but especially from Italy. At the same time, existing ranch hands were displaced due to the construction of fencing around fields.
On 10 March 1903, the group of houses here was declared a "Pueblo" (village) by the Act of Ley Nº 2.788. On 13 December 1994, its status was elevated to "Ciudad" (city) by the Act of Ley Nº 16.668
Population.
In 2011, Vergara had a population of 3,810.
