Abstract

The article aims to publish and analyze a valuable Ottoman document from 1872 to 1875. The document is kept in the State Archives of the town of Pernik. It represents an official register of loans granted by property for orphans. The register is the so-called Orphan's Fund in the town of Tran (today in Bulgaria), in the document – Iznebol . The creation of orphan's funds in between 60s and 70s of the Õ²Õ century was done by the reformers in the Danube Vilayet (Province) of the Ottoman Empire. Their set-up and importance is very poorly studied.
