The village was first mentioned officially in 1420. In the beginning of the Turkish invasion, it was property of the Mirliva family. In the seventeenth century, Farmos was mentioned among totally perished villages. About 1700, several families were deployed to the village, who had been hungarianized within a few decades. According to the county record of 1727, the recent area of the village was owned by - among others - Ádám Bene, Boldizsár Kozma, Count and Antal Grassalkovich. In the nineteenth century it was owned by the Ivánka-Kass-Matolcsy and Vízy families.

A falu első okleveles említése 1420-ból való. A török megszállás kezdetén a település a szolnoki Mirliva ház birtoka. A XVII. században Farmost a teljesen elpusztult falvak között említik meg. 1700 körül Zólyom megyéből telepítettek több családot a községbe, akik néhány évtized alatt elmagyarosodtak. Az 1727-es vármegyei jegyzőkönyv szerint a falu mai területét – többek között – Bene Ádám, Kozma Boldizsár, gróf Grassalkovich Antal és mások birtokolták. A XIX. században az Ivánka-Kaas-Matolcsy és a Vizy családok birtokolták.
