Well-known Crimean Tatar writer and a turchology scholar, professor Bekir Choban-zade`s (1893–1937) scientific biograpy being developed like monograph, to a great misfortune, because of  a lack of very rare Crimean Tatar arabographic sources,  such as  newspaper  “Vetan Hadimi” (1906-1908), magazines “Eshil Ada”(1920) and “Bilgi” (1921), some facts and datas connected with the time of his entering the primary school, period of study in Karasubazar Rushdie school and in Turkish  “Sultanie” Lyceum are given incorrectly  in works of previous researchers.In this article are  introduced exact  facts which were confirmed by notes and letters of  B. Choban-zade himself, they make the biographical chronology  clear and give objective information on the way of life of this well-known scholar.

Keywords: Crimean Tatar scholars, biography of B. Choban-zade, rare arabographic sources on the Crimean Tatar language
