Life and register readings

Mehmed Medenî Efendi was born in Medina (Medine) in 1849/50 (AH 1266). At about 26, in 1876/77, Mehmed Medenî began work, on a first salary of 100 kuruş. The first annual entry, for 1876/77, names Mehmed Medenî as Nizamiye Evrak Odası mülazımı, with no place.

Pay rose from 100 kuruş a month in 1876/77 to a peak of 1,200 in 1891/92, when 83 per cent of paid officials earned less. The final annual entry is for 1891/92.

Places in order of time

Each number is a stop: the birthplace, the place of first work, then every place of the annual entries in turn. The year beside an arrow is the first entry at the new place.
