When Csabacsűd was eventually repopulated, it was placed under the jurisdiction of the nearby village of Békésszentandrás. In 1735, the villagers participated in peasant's revolt lead by Pera Segedinac.

Following Hungary's defeat in the Hungarian Revolution of 1848, the Hungarian baron József Eötvös hid from the Habsburgs in Csabacsűd.
