Life and register readings
The life of Mehmed Ziya Efendi began in Gaziantep (Antep) in 1859/60 (AH 1276). Work began in Kastamonu in 1895/96, at about 36, on a first salary of 250 kuruş. Few began so late; fewer than 5 per cent of the 5,664 officials whose age at first work is known started at 36 or older. From the first annual entry, for 1895/96, to 1897/98, every annual entry places Mehmed Ziya in the same post, Belediye sandık emini, in Kastamonu.
Pay rose from 300 kuruş a month in 1895/96 to a peak of 500 in 1897/98, in Kastamonu, when 56 per cent of paid officials earned less. The last annual entry is for 1897/98.
