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

The life of İbrahim Efendi began in Tokat in 1853/54 (AH 1270). İbrahim studied at a school for young children (Sıbyan Mektebi). Work began in 1869/70, at about 16. The first annual entry, for 1869/70, names İbrahim as stajyer, with no place, with a rise to Sandık Emaneti memuru in 1897/98. For 1883 to 1897 the lists have no entry.

The salary went from 265 kuruş a month in 1869/70 to 400 in 1878/79, the peak, when 44 per cent of paid officials earned less. The last annual entry is for 1897/98.

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.
