About Abraham Farkas

lived in trebishan Maramures

changed his name to farkas in 1910

because his relative with the same exact name Abraham Husz was hung publicly as a death sentence by the local sighet Court in connection to a libel of a mail robbery where the mail guy and 1 armed soldier escorting the mail shipment were killed

So this name was very unpopular at that time in all Media so he changed his surname to Farkas
