FAMILY TIES OF GOTSE DELCHEV IN THE VILLAGES OF NOVO DELCHEVO AND VĂLKOVO OF THE SANDANSKI MUNICIPALITY, BULGARIA 

Bistra Rindova 

(Summary) 

In 1920 – 1921, the villages of Gara Levunovo /today Novo Delchevo/ and Văksan /today Vălkovo/, then in Petrich District, were mainly settled with refugees from Aegean Macedonia who fled the Greek genocide after the Second Balkan War in Strumica district, then within the boundaries of Kingdom of Bulgaria. After the Treaty of Neuilly, Strumica and its surroundings were handed over to the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes and part of the Macedonian Bulgarians came to Bulgaria. Several families, including that of the squad chief Ivan Tashev /Vano Morarski/ who originated from the village of Morartsi, Kukush/Kilkis/ area, Gotse Delchev’s first cousin and son of his aunt Kata Dimitrova Delcheva-Tasheva, settled near Levunovo Railway Station and established a village they named Novo Delchevo after Gotse Delchev’s surname. The second cousins of Gotse Delchev – Trayko Popivanov and his sister Maria Petseva, nee Popivanova, children of priest Ivan Stoyanov Traykov, native of the village of Morartsi, first cousin of Sultana Yaneva Nurdzhieva (whose maiden surname was Traykova), married to Nikola Dimitrov Belchev, settled in the village of Văksan, as well as in abovementioned two villages – Novo 142 Бистра Риндова Delchevo and Vălkovo, and their descendants have been living still today.
