Life and register readings

The life of İzzet Efendi began in Kilis in 1853/54 (AH 1270). At about 25, in 1878/79, İzzet began work in Kilis, on a first salary of 250 kuruş. The first annual entry, for 1878/79, places İzzet in Kilis, the birthplace, as Belediye kâtibi ve sandık emini, where the entries run to 1884/85. The lists have no entry for 1885 to 1889. The last entries, from 1889 to 1894, name İzzet as Emlâk-ı Hümayun şubesi başkâtip vekili, with no place.

The salary went from 250 kuruş a month in 1878/79 to 800 in 1891/92, the peak, when three in four paid officials earned less. The final annual entry is for 1893/94.
