Life and register readings
The life of Mehmed Sâlim Efendi began in Çemişgezek in 1859/60 (AH 1276). The schooling was at a school for young children (Sıbyan Mektebi). Mehmed Sâlim began work in Ovacık in 1878, at about 18, on a first salary of 200 kuruş. The first annual entry, for 1878, places Mehmed Sâlim in Ovacık as Rüsumat idaresi kâtibi. Alongside, the lists for 1883 to 1887 give a second post, in Çemişgezek as Vergi kitâbeti refiki. Alongside, the lists for 1885/86 give a second post, in Mazgirt as Vergi kâtibi. Alongside, the lists for 1890 to 1892 give a second post, in Mazgirt as Nüfus memuru. Alongside, the lists for 1891 to 1893 give a second post, in Çemişgezek as Nüfus memuru. Alongside, the lists for 1892/93 give a second post, in a post with no place named as Hapishane kâtibi.
The salary went from 200 kuruş a month in 1878 to 400 in 1885/86, the peak, in Mazgirt, when 44 per cent of paid officials earned less. That salary was paid for a single year, and the next list gives 250 kuruş. The final annual entry is for 1892/93.
