Life and register readings

The life of KARABET EFEND İ began in Afyonkarahisar (Karahisar-ı Sahib) in 1858/59 (AH 1275); the father's occupation was "terzi". At about 23, in 1881/82, KARABET İ began work. The first annual entry, for 1881/82, names KARABET İ as a candidate official (Mülazım), with no place. For 1882 to 1884 and 1886 to 1892 the lists have no entry. The annual lists then follow KARABET İ to Bolvadin in 1893/94. The lists have no entry for 1894 to 1900. The last entries, from 1900 to 1903, name KARABET İ as emanet vekili (ilave görev), with no place.

The salary went from 300 kuruş a month in 1881/82 to 400 in 1893/94, the peak, in Bolvadin, when 44 per cent of paid officials earned less. The last annual entry is for 1902/03.

Places in order of time
