Life and register readings

The life of HÜSEYİN TEVFİK EFENDİ began in Komotini (Gümülcine) in 1875/76 (AH 1292); the father's occupation was "Emekli Pirlepe mal müdürü". The annual lists begin in 1890/91, with HÜSEYİN TEVFİK as Nüfus kâtibi in Elassona, where the entries run to 1893/94. At the same time, from 1893 to 1896, the lists also place HÜSEYİN TEVFİK in a post with no place named as Nakil. Alongside, the lists for 1895 to 1901 give a second post, in Elassona as Pasaport memuru. Alongside, the lists for 1900 to 1902 give a second post, in a post with no place named as Pasaport memuru vekili. Alongside, the lists for 1901 to 1908 give a second post, in Bitola as Vergi Kalemi ve Tahrir-i Vergi Kitabeti refakati. Alongside, the lists for 1907/08 give a second post, in a post with no place named as Nakil. The lists give Infisal for 1897/98 and 1900/01; İstifa (resignation) for 1901/02 instead of a title.

The salary went from 125 kuruş a month in 1890/91 to 500 in 1893/94, the peak, when 55 per cent of paid officials earned less. The final annual entry is for 1907/08.

Places in order of time
