Life and register readings

The life of Ömer Lütfi Efendi began in Kütahya in 1873/74 (AH 1290); the father's occupation was "Kütahya Redif Taburu yüzbaşısı". At about 14, in 1886/87, Ömer Lütfi began work in Kütahya. The first annual entry, for 1886/87, places Ömer Lütfi in Kütahya, the birthplace, as Tahrirat Kalemi mülazımı, where the entries run to 1893/94. The lists have no entry for 1894 to 1899. Alongside, the lists for 1893 to 1900 give a second post, in a post with no place named as Gönüllü asker. Alongside, the lists for 1899/1900 give a second post, in Kütahya as Tahrirat Kalemi mülazımı (Nakil).

The one salary in the lists is 300 kuruş a month, for 1899/1900, when 29 per cent of paid officials earned less. The final annual entry is for 1899/1900.
