Life and register readings
Born in Harput in 1866/67 (AH 1283), Mardiros Lütfi Efendi came from the İslam community. At about 22, in 1888/89, Mardiros Lütfi began work in Diyarbakır, on a first salary of 500 kuruş. Every annual entry from 1888/89 to 1909/10 places Mardiros Lütfi in the same post, Üçüncü sınıf kondüktör, in Diyarbakır. A career like this is rare; fewer than 5 per cent of the 2,755 officials whose entries span 20 years or more stayed in one place throughout.
The salary went from 500 kuruş a month in 1888/89 to 600 in 1909/10, the peak, in Diyarbakır, when half the paid officials earned less. The final annual entry is for 1909/10.
