Las Origines de Falba

OK, I do not speak Spanish, but maybe I got the title right.

I've been spuckling through the Internet this afternoon, trying to learn things. Spuckling is not a legit word, in case you're wondering. Anyway, I decided to find the origins of Falba, the now-lost town in East Texas, near midway.

I found nothing certain, but I am leaning toward believing that Falba is of Hungarian origin. In Hungarian, Falba means to bond or bonded or embedded in. My guess is that the orginal founders of Falba, Texas were of Hungarian origin. It would be interesting to go to the Falba Cemetary and look at the names of people who are buried there.
