Life and register readings

MEHMET NAZ İF EFEND İ was born in Afyonkarahisar (Karahisar-ı Sahib). The annual lists begin in 1873/74 (AH 1290), with MEHMET NAZ İF İ as tahrirat kâtibi and no place named. Alongside, the lists for 1874/75 give a second post, in Bolvadin as tahrirat kâtibi. The annual lists then follow MEHMET NAZ İF İ to Çal from 1875 to 1878. Alongside, the lists for 1876/77 give a second post, in Sandıklı as tahrirat kâtibi. Next came Uşak and Diyarbakır from 1879 to 1899. For 1882 to 1884 and 1886 to 1897 the lists have no entry. Alongside, the lists for 1898/99 give a second post, in Kastamonu as merkez bidayet mahkemesi başkâtibi. Six places in all, a number reached by fewer than 8 per cent of the 6,605 officials with a place of service.

The salary went from 390 kuruş a month in 1873/74 to 500 in 1898/99, the peak, in Kastamonu, when 55 per cent of paid officials earned less. The final annual entry is for 1898/99.

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.
