Life and register readings

Mehmet Nazmi Efendi was born in Pristina (Priştine) in 1870/71 (AH 1287); the father's occupation was "Kosova İstinaf Mahkemesi aza stajyeri". At about 17, in 1887/88, Mehmet Nazmi began work in Pristina. The annual lists begin in 1887/88, with Mehmet Nazmi as Bidayet Mahkemesi stajyeri in Pristina, the birthplace, where the entries run to 1893/94. Alongside, the lists for 1893 to 1899 give a second post, in Mitrovica as Bidayet Mahkemesi ikinci daire görevlisi. Alongside, the lists for 1898/99 give a second post, in Preševo as Bidayet Mahkemesi Savci Muavini, with a rise to Bidayet Mahkemesi Savci Muavini. Alongside, the lists for 1898 to 1900 give a second post, in Vushtrri as Bidayet Mahkemesi Savci Muavini. Alongside, the lists for 1899/1900 give a second post, in Pristina as Bidayet Mahkemesi sözleşmeler yazıcısı.

Pay rose from 225 kuruş a month in 1893/94 to a peak of 300 in 1898/99, as Bidayet Mahkemesi Savci Muavini in Preševo, when 27 per cent of paid officials earned less. The last annual entry is for 1899/1900.
