In contrast to the disputed and unclear ethnic origin of Murad Bey, those of Ibrahim Bey was firmly established in the 1960s, when his letters to his Georgian relatives were discovered and published. Those who still rely on the 19th-century source of his Circassian origin can see, inter alia, "Relations of the Georgian Mamluks of Egypt with Their Homeland in the Last Decades of the Eighteenth Century" by Daniel Crecelius and Gotcha Djaparidze. Journal of the Economic and Social History of the Orient. Vol. 45, No. 3 (2002), pp. 320-341. Also, Russian-speakers can refer to "Черкесские мамлюки" ("Circassian Mamluks") by Samir Khotko (Maikop, 1993), where Ibrahim Bey is mentioned as "Kakhetian" ("Мурад-бей делил власть со своим хушдашем кахетинцем Ибрагим-беем") --KoberTalk 19:16, 4 September 2016 (UTC)Reply
