Life and register readings

Mehmet Ziyaddin Efendi was born in Bigadiç in 1871/72 (AH 1288). Work began in Bigadiç in 1900/01, at about 29, on a first salary of 112 kuruş. The first annual entry, for 1900/01, places Mehmet Ziyaddin in Bigadiç, the birthplace, as Tahrirat kâtibi refakat memuru, where the entries run to 1904/05. Alongside, the lists for 1904/05 give a second post, in a post with no place named as Tahrirat kâtibi.

The salary went from 112 kuruş a month in 1900/01 to 340 in 1904/05, the peak, when 37 per cent of paid officials earned less. Over five years the salaries add up to 10,368 kuruş, 43 per cent of what an official on the median salary earned. The final annual entry is for 1904/05.

Places in order of time

Each number is a stop: the birthplace, the place of first work, then every place of the annual entries in turn. The year beside an arrow is the first entry at the new place.
