Life and register readings

Hüseyin Hüsnü Efendi was born in Erzincan in 1878/79 (AH 1296) into the İslam community; the father's occupation was "Binbaşı (27. Alay 2. Tabur)". Work began in 1894/95, at about 16, on a first salary of 80 kuruş. The first annual entry, for 1894/95, names Hüseyin Hüsnü as Yoklama kısmı mülazımı (kâtip), with no place.

Pay rose from 80 kuruş a month in 1894/95 to a peak of 864 in 1906/07, when three in four paid officials earned less. The final annual entry is for 1906/07.
