Life and register readings
Born in Bursa in 1875/76 (AH 1292), Mehmed Tevfik Efendi came from the İslam community; the father's occupation was "Erkan-ı Harbiye-i Umûmiye Dairesi resimhane görevlisi". The personnel record dates the first work to 1905/06, after the first annual entry, on a first salary of 100 kuruş. The annual lists begin in 1904/05, with Mehmed Tevfik as sevk-i mekâtib odası me'muriyeti and no place named.
The salary never rose above the first in the lists, 100 kuruş a month in 1904/05, when 4 per cent of paid officials earned less. Over three years the salaries add up to 2,820 kuruş, 18 per cent of what an official on the median salary earned. The last annual entry is for 1906/07.
