Life and register readings

Born in Varna in 1857/58 (AH 1274), TUZCUZADE MEHMED ŞÜKRÜ EFENDİ was the child of a customs official (rüsumat memuru). Work began in 1877/78, at about 19. The annual lists begin in 1877/78, with TUZCUZADE MEHMED ŞÜKRÜ as Tahrir-i Emlak Kalemi mülazımı and no place named. TUZCUZADE MEHMED ŞÜKRÜ then moved to Marmaris from 1878 to 1882. Alongside, the lists for 1881 to 1883 give a second post, in Bodrum as Tahrir ve vergi kâtibi. Alongside, the lists for 1882 to 1885 give a second post, in Milas as Vergi kâtibi. Alongside, the lists for 1884 to 1897 give a second post, in Turgutlu as Vergi kâtibi. Alongside, the lists for 1896 to 1898 give a second post, in a post with no place named as Merkez Vergi Müdürlüğü Kalemi memuru. Alongside, the lists for 1897 to 1899 give a second post, in Milas as Mal müdür muavini. Alongside, the lists for 1898/99 give a second post, in Manisa as Vergi kâtibi.

Pay rose from 350 kuruş a month in 1877/78 to a peak of 500 in 1884/85, in Turgutlu, when 59 per cent of paid officials earned less. The last annual entry is for 1898/99.
