Below are articles from the following dictionary:
Vine's Expository Dictionary of New Testament Words
1 Strong's Number: g1096 Greek: ginomai

Befall:

"to become," is rendered "befell" in Mar 5:16; "hath befallen" in Rom 11:25, RV, for AV, "is happened to;" so the RV in 2Cr 1:8; 2Ti 3:11.

2 Strong's Number: g4819 Greek: sumbaino

Befall:

lit., "to walk, or go together" (sun, "with," baino, "to go"), is used of things which happen at the same time; hence, "to come to pass, befall," Act 20:19. In Act 21:35, it is translated "so it was."
See HAPPEN.

3 Strong's Number: g4876 Greek: sunantao

Befall:

"to meet with" (sun, "with," antao, "to meet"), is used much in the same way as sumbaino, of events which come to pass; "befall," Act 20:22.
See MEET.

Note: The phrase in Mat 8:33, "what was befallen to them that were possessed with demons," is lit., "the things of the demonized."
