Johannes Fauss arrived in PA on the "Pennsylvania Merchant" in 1732.He could sign his name, and it was definitely Fauss.He had 4 children named in his will, but only one, Jacob, has been traced.The surname evolved to Fahs in Jacob's generation by the time he got to York County.It was also sometimes spelled Faas.
