Life and register readings

İsmail Cemil Efendi was born in Çemişgezek in 1869/70 (AH 1286); the father's occupation was "Berber". At about 20, in 1889/90, İsmail Cemil began work in Pah, on a first salary of 150 kuruş. The first annual entry, for 1889/90, places İsmail Cemil in Pah as Tahrirat kâtibi. Alongside, the lists for 1890 to 1896 give a second post, in Carsancak as Tahrirat kâtibi. Alongside, the lists for 1895 to 1897 give a second post, in Nazımiye as Tahrirat kâtibi. Alongside, the lists for 1896 to 1898 give a second post, in a post with no place named as Polis neferi. Alongside, the lists for 1897 to 1906 give a second post, in Mazgirt as Ziraat Bankası sandığı muhasebat kâtibi. Alongside, the lists for 1905/06 give a second post, in Divriği as Ziraat Bankası sandığı muhasebat kâtibi.

Pay rose from 150 kuruş a month in 1889/90 to a peak of 500 in 1905/06, in Divriği, when 52 per cent of paid officials earned less. The last annual entry is for 1905/06.
