Life and register readings

TALHA BEĞ was born in Istanbul in 1879/80 (AH 1297); the father's occupation was "Antalya mebusu; Yeni Tasvir-i Efkâr gazetesi imtiyaz sahibi". At about 30, in 1910/11, TALHA BEĞ began work in Istanbul, on a first salary of 1,000 kuruş. Both annual entries, for 1910/11 and 1911, place TALHA BEĞ in Istanbul, the birthplace, as Şehremaneti Heyet-i Fenniye ikinci şube kâtibi.

The salary went from 1,000 kuruş a month in 1910/11 to 1,500 in 1911, the peak, in Istanbul, when 73 per cent of paid officials earned less. The last annual entry is for 1911.
