• According to the travel memoirs of Hoca Hamdi Efendi from Akşehir in 1875, Karacaoğlan grew up as an orphan. He left his hometown at a young age, possibly due to the fear of being conscripted for a lifetime like his father or due to a falling out with the Kozanoğulları, who were feudal lords in Çukurova at the time. There are poems indicating that he took both of his sisters with him and traveled to Bursa and even Istanbul. It is believed that he spent a significant part of his life in the Çukurova, Maraş, and Gaziantep regions.
