Appendix LIST OF IMAMS OF THE KASAP ƒLYAS MOSQUE 1662–1667 Mustafa Efendi, imam. 1737–1747 Ibrahim Efendi, imam. 1760–1761 Mustafa Efendi, imam. 1782 Hacı Hâfız Mahmud Efendi, imam. 1784–1799 Hacı Hâfız Mehmed Efendi, imam, Ibrahim bin Mustafa, müezzin, and Hasan Efendi, hatip (Friday preacher). 1799–1808 This is an interregnum and the Kasap ƒlyas mosque officially seems to have had no imam in this period. The local vakıf documents are all signed by a protector (vasi), who is temporarily in charge. 1808–1822 Mahmud Efendi, imam and Edhem Efendi, müezzin. 1822–1846 Hacı Aziz Mahmud Efendi, imam (Kâmil Efendi müezzin ca. 1830). 1854–1855 Seyyid Hâfız Mehmed Efendi, imam. The dates only indicate a terminus ad quem and a terminus ad quo, since they are simply those of the first and of the last legal acts undersigned by the said imam in the documents of the local vakıfs, of which he was the trustee.1 These have been here and there supplemented by information drawn from the Davudpaœa Court records in the nineteenth century as, in some court cases the imam appeared as a witness or guarantor.2 The result is obviously patchy, for the much larger portion of the signatures on the local vakıf documents give absolutely no clue about the imam’s identity, and they read: el fakîr imam-ı cami-i mahalle-yi Kasap ƒlyas (the lowly imam of the mosque of the Kasap ƒlyas mahalle). 183 184 APPENDIX LIST OF MUHTARS 1830(?)–1846 Aziz Mahmud Efendi (Muhtar-ı sânî : 1832-1833 Mustafa a™a ca. 1846 Kömürcü Abdullah A™a) 1865–1883 ƒsmail bey (Muhtar-ı sânî: 1865–1870 Süleyman bin Hasan 1878–1880 Ahmet bin Hacı Ali 1880–1883 Osman Efendi) 1883–1904 Osman Efendi (Muhtar-ı sânî: ca. 1899 Mehmed Nuri Efendi) dates unknown Muhsin bey 1944–1968 Hüseyin Gidemez (“Karakaœ Hüseyin”) 1968–1984 Fuat Sa™ıro™lu (“Laz Fuat”) 1984–1994 Nuri Aydınlı 1994– Hasan ¥arkalkan (“Kuœçu Hasan”) The dates given for the nineteenth-century muhtars are all approximate. For the “second muhtars,” the dates given indicate only their date of appearance in the documents, either in the Davudpaœa Court records3 or in the private notebooks having belonged to Osman Efendi.4 ...
