  3. ^ The site was rebuilt in 1976.

  5. ^ PD no. 105 s. 1973 names the site as Aguinaldo Mansion in Kawit, Cavite
  6. ^ The site where the house once stood was in Pandacan, Manila along the banks of the Nagtahan river. This was original location of the National Shrine contained in Proclamation no. 324, s. 1968. The house was moved several times due to developments of the Nagtahan Bridge (now Mabini Bridge).
  7. ^ Proclamation 1992, s. 2010 declares PUP- Sta Mesa as the permanent home of the Mabini shrine. No law or legal declaration rescinds the Pandacan site.
