Life and register readings
Hüseyin Hüsnü Efendi was born in Gelibolu; the father's occupation was "Çiftlikat-ı Hümayun Ağnam Müdürü". The schooling was at a school for young children (Sıbyan Mektebi).
The first annual entry, for 1869/70 (AH 1286), names Hüseyin Hüsnü as a communications official (Muhabere Memuru), with no place. For 1872 to 1874 and 1875 to 1878 the lists have no entry. At the same time, from 1890 to 1901, the lists also place Hüseyin Hüsnü in Rumelihisarı as Telgraf Memuru, with a rise to Telgraf Memuru and to Telgraf merkezi müdürü in 1892/93. The lists have no entry for 1893 to 1896.
Pay rose from 480 kuruş a month in 1869/70 to a peak of 900 in 1900/01, in Rumelihisarı, when four in five paid officials earned less. Over 20 years the salaries add up to 139,260 kuruş, 1.4 times what an official on the median salary earned. The last annual entry is for 1900/01.
