Posted by orak Dear Sungu, I excluded Ankara and Istanbul, because they are too cosmopolit. For me it is remarkable that Baþustaoglu's are living almost only in Giresun. I think that Adana and Ýçel are the most common cities for these names; so it is a possiblity that your relatives are from south parts of Turkey (Mediterranean coasts).
