Life and register readings
Born in Erzincan, Mehmet Dursun Efendi came from the İslam community; the father's occupation was "Redif alayı sancaktarı". Work began in 1890/91 (AH 1308), on a first salary of 80 kuruş. The annual lists begin in 1890/91, with Mehmet Dursun as Yoklama kısmı mülazımı (kâtip) and no place named. The lists have no entry for 1898 to 1903, 1904 to 1906 and 1907 to 1909.
Pay rose from 80 kuruş a month in 1890/91 to a peak of 2,160 in 1909/10, when nine in ten paid officials earned less. Over five years the salaries add up to 48,000 kuruş, 1.8 times what an official on the median salary earned. The final annual entry is for 1909/10.
