One of the leading local figures in the Haskovo region, was Hasköylü Nasuh Paşa. He was born around the 1850s in Beyköy (Golemantsi), into a poor family of Bulgarian Turks, whose Ancestor's once came centuries before from the Karaduraklı village of Kırşehir Province, and belongend to the Karakoç clan of Bayat (tribe). He lost his parents early and grew up as an orphan. In young age he tended sheep for the rich Haskovo Çorbacısı Boyacıoğlu Ağa, however, he managed to become a wealthy Landowner and was called Pasha. He married four wifes, including the daughter of the Haskovo Çorbacısı Boyacıoğlu Ağa, named Büyük Hanım (Great Lady). He bought several lands at the Haskovo Municipality, but he also had a (Köşk) (Mansion) in Edirne, where part of his family lived there. In Haskovo City, he and his family lived in the main residence, the Boyacıoğlu house. In Beyköy (Golemantsi), he built a large Konak (residence), with a Haremlik and Selamlik and a big Animal stall, which unfortunately later was destroyed by fire at the Balkan War (1912-13). He ruled this Turkish exclave at the Eastern Rhodope Mountains de facto independent from 1885 until 1913. Since 1889 he was one of the first Breeder of Karakul sheep in Bulgaria. He used the proceeds to provide for poor families, and was a great promoter of Turkish Oil wrestling. Many of Nasuh Pasha's male offspring have been and are Kırkpınar.

Nasuh Pasha already lived with his daughter in Edirne even before the time of the Balkan War (1912-13); his daughter met and fell in love with an American businessman, and left the Ottoman Empire. Around 1929-30 the whole Family left Istanbul and settled in Babaeski and Ahmet's descendants intermarried with the Pomaks in Turkey, and live in Büyükmandıra as Farmers.
