According to the genealogy (shézhere) preserved from the time of our ancestors, the progenitor of the Kyrgyz Bashkirs (in the sense: Bashkirs of the Kyrgyz clan), living in the village of Tashly in the Alexandrovskaya volost of the Bugulminsky district, was called "Kurkod-ata," (originating) from the Kyrgyz yurt, a descendant of Sayd (from the clan of Muhammad); (he lived) on the Bukhara road, by the Sea of Syr. His (Kurkod-ata's) son was Akhmed bi, from him Mukhammad bi, from him Yanba bi, from him Kushik bi.
Kushik bi lived in the village of Iske Kyrgyz (Old Kyrgyz) in the valley of the Belaya River near Lake Tatysh and paid tribute to the White bi.
Kushik bi had two sons: the first named Akqosh bi, the second — Kukkuz bi. Akqosh bi had a son named Butamys bi, from whom Buralmys bi descended. Kukkuz bi had two sons: named Kylchan (now the name of a small village) and Tynych; it is written that these two clans (zats) received a grant for our land from the Great Tsar Alexei Mikhailovich.
Kylchan had a son Urazkilde, from him Yday, then Modok, from him Bikmukhamed. The renowned Bikmukhamed, along with his relatives, came from the village of Iske Kyrgyz and settled in the village of Katai. Bikmukhamed had a son named Husain, who in 1755 founded the village of Tashly in the Alexandrovskaya volost of the Bugulminsky district with his relatives.
