Bulgarian Exarchate vs Patriarch of Constantinople

[maco2envy]

Does anyone know the source of somebody stating that a specific man from Macedonia was a Bulgarian because he was a follower of the Bulgarian Exarchate while the brother of the man was stated to be a Roman because he followed the Patriarch of Constantinople?

I can't recall that particular example, but Brailsford's "Macedonia" cites similar examples of family members being divided into different nationalities because they attended different churches or schools.

Doesn't mention "Roman." I thought it was relative and worth posting here.

In 1905 Hilmi carried out in three vilayets the first census of population since the Turkish conquest, which disclosed the following results: Muslims 1,720,007; Greeks 648,962; Bulgars 557,734; Serbs 167,601; Jews and others 77,386; total 3,171,690. Under "Muslims" were included Turks and Albanians inhabiting the Western part of the Bitola Vilayet and the northwestern part of the Kosovo Vilayet; under "Greeks," all the Patriarchists," whether of Greek, Slavonic or Rumanian Speech; under "Serbs," only those attending Serbian churches and schools, who were confined to the northern and north western districts of the Kosovo Vilayet.
