Ferencz Grósz

Herschel · Zvi Naftali · the Grósz patriarch · son of Sámuel Moshe of Apagy

3rd great-grandfather · father of the six Grósz siblings, including the two sisters (Amália Miriam and Roza) who married into the two adjacent Feldman and Weisz households — the source of the entire Grósz hinge that links the two branches of this family · Hebrew name Zvi Naftali · parents documented v3.63: son of Sámuel Moshe Grósz (b. 1823 Apagy) and Sára Mihaly (1829–1891) · brother of Májer Grósz · the move from Apagy (Sámuel Moshe's birthplace) to Jákó / Nyíregyháza happened either in Sámuel Moshe's adult lifetime or in Ferencz's own — the family's deeper Apagy origin is the v3.63 finding that reframes Bobby's 1928 birth in Apagy as a return to ancestral ground rather than a coincidence of marriage.

The Grósz patriarch of this family. The Apagy origins are sourced to Ancestry and Hungarian census records (per family knowledge added v3.63). His son Simon was the first member of the family to reach America (Selma, Alabama, May 1905); his two daughters Amália Miriam and Roza together became the Grósz hinge that produced three documented cousin marriages a generation later.
