Summary/Abstract: The Archives State Agency holds a number of documents related to the historical past of Bulgarians in Macedonia. Of particular interest are the memoirs of Georgi Kayafov of Yenice-i Vardar, as they shed light on the fate of the Macedonian Bulgarians during the harsh time under Ottoman and Greek rule. Georgi Kayafov writes about unknown or little known events from the struggles for independent Bulgarian church in the late 19th century, for the national liberation movement in the early 20th century, for the strenuous years after the accession of Aegean Macedonia to Greece and the fate of the Macedonian intelligentsia before and during the Second World War. The preserved photographs from his archive supplement the history of IMARO and the Bulgarian Club in Thessaloniki, and the songs included in his memoirs are valuable folklore material.
