Looking for family of Erszebet (Elizabeth) Barabas who came to the US about 1903 from Pusztavam Hungary. Her desitination was Passaic, New Jersey where she had at least one cousin. Any Barabas's from Passaic out there that might be cousins?

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.

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 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?
