I have found a Josef Barabas that was born in Pusztavam Sept 12, 1913. His parents were Pal Barabas and Erszebet Stettner. This wouldn't be the correct Joseph. What was Anna's maiden name?

William Joseph Barabas, age 64, son of,Margaret and Joseph Barabas in Erie, Pa.

William Joseph "Bill" Barabas.
1948-2012 William "Bill" Joseph Barabas, age 64, passed away on Monday, September 3, 2012 in the home of his son and daughter-in-law in Las Vegas, Nev.
He was born on July 14, 1948
to Margaret and Joseph Barabas in Erie, Pa. and was the oldest of four children. He spent his childhood in Erie and received his elementary education at Holy Family School. He was actively involved in sports, especially Little League baseball, basketball, and football and he remained an enthusiastic sports fan throughout his life. He graduated from High School at Cathedral Prep, and shortly after he enlisted in the U.S. Air Force. He received basic training at Lakeland, Texas and then served four years as a combat zone medic in the Vietnam War, in the province of Da Nang. He carried the memories of his suffering comrades with him for the rest of his life. After his military service, he obtained a Bachelor's Degree in Psychology from Gannon University and a Master's degree in Hospital Administration from the University of Pittsburgh. He worked as an Assistant Administrator for Our Lady of Victory Hospital in Buffalo, N.Y. He retired to Las Vegas Nev. in 2007 with his son and daughter-in-law, and his favorite pastime was spending time with his granddaughter, who brought him pure joy. William was preceded in death by his father Joseph Barabas of Erie, Pa. in January 2010, his younger brother Joseph Barabas Jr. of Okeechobee, Fla. in 1993, his grandmother Anna Chermak of Erie, Pa., in 1981 and his nephew Troy Bielak of Erie, Pa. in March 2010. William is survived by his two sons David Barabas (Nicole) and granddaughter Cheyenne of Las Vegas, Nev., and William "BJ" Barabas (Shanna), granddaughters Payton and Harper and grandson David of Paducah, Ky. He is also survived by his mother, Margaret Barabas, his brother Jim (Judy)Barabas, his sister Mary Ann (Dan) Tempestini of Erie, Pa., and his sister-in- law Colleen Barabas O'Bannon (Jerry) of Okeechobee, Fla., his nephews Matt and Josh Barabas of Florida, Eddie and Darrell Bielak of Erie, Pa., his aunt, Sr. Mary Grace Chermack of Belleview, Pa. and his uncle, Joseph Chermack (Sande) of Erie, Pa. as well as many other cousins.

I believe I worked with your father at Avco Lycoming in Stratford in the early 80's. He was a good friend and very helpfull to me. We spent many hours talking about many things in life. Sometimes he was so funny and other times he could get mad as hell at me. I really loved him and miss him. I read his book "As I Remember" I wish I could get a copy now just to have it. Thank you.

I haven't found any Barabas relation from Pusztavam, Hungary, with the given name of Joseph or Jozsef. Within the last few months however, I have found well over a score of Barabas family members that live here in the US who were descendants of a common ancestor who originally lived in Passaic. Barabas is a pretty common name throughout Hungary. Do you know what part of Hungary your family was from or when they arrived in the US? There are Barabas that lived in Pusztavam that I haven't been able to connect to my family tree, but that doesn't mean that they are not related to me.

I know this is an old thread but just came across it. My great grandparents lived in Passaic in 1900. Joseph and Anna. Their last name was sometimes spelled Barabas, but it ended up as Barbas. Don't know if they could have been related.

It is possible that Tomasz Fridman is my father's cousin. One of my dad's friends from Pusztavam has the last name of Barabas as well.

It's been a while since you posted your message. Let me know if you're still looking.

I am looking for kin of my paternal Grandmother. She died way before I was born. Her last name could be any of those listed above. Numerous documents list different last names. Her first name is Elizabeth (Lisi or Liz) and she came to the U.S. from Bustevahn (?), Austria-Hungary around 1902. Her husband's name was Thomas Friedman. They were married probably in New Jersey and had one child while in New York. They moved to California prior to 1908 and settled in Butte County.

Anyone have any info on this or recognizes anything, please reply. Thank you.

Hi, David--I am looking for other Barabas family members and saw your posting. A Gustav Barabas 1854-1924 married my great grandmother's sister...his wife was Frederica Caroline Fuhrmann. They lived in northern Michigan. Gustav may have been born in Bavaria, but am not sure. His father was August, and all I have for his mother's name is Hermoine. There may have been other children, but do not know. Rumor is that August was in prison in Germany, and his friends broke him out. He either joined or found his wife on a boat to America, and came over with his family. I am actually seeking information on Frederica more than Gustav, but will start wherever I can. Does any of this sound familiar to you? Thanks

I am looking for possible relatives to my husband. His grandfather, Ignatius Barabash, was from Russia. Name was believed to be Barabash. (barabosh?)
When he came to the US, he shortened it to Ignatz Barabos. We are not sure of where in Russia he came from, except that it was the old Russia. We think he had about 6 sisters. not sure of brothers. He was born in 1895.
If this sounds familiar to anyone, please email me at polar64bar@aol.com thanks Mary.
