Annual salary study and register readings

This study view uses the annual salary reference records. The main biography brings together the wider career and its sources.

Life and register readings

Nazaret Efendi was born in Kayseri in 1849/50 (AH 1266); the father was a jeweller (kuyumcu). The schooling was at a community school (Millet Mektebi).

Nazaret began work in Istanbul in 1872/73, at about 22. From the first annual entry, for 1872/73, to 1884/85, every annual entry places Nazaret in the same post, Tütün İnhisarı İdaresi stajyeri, in Istanbul.

Pay rose from 300 kuruş a month in 1873/74 to a peak of 500 in 1878, in Istanbul, when 54 per cent of paid officials earned less. The last annual entry is for 1884/85.

Places in order of time

Each number is a stop: the birthplace, the place of first work, then every place of the annual entries in turn. The year beside an arrow is the first entry at the new place.
