This study view uses the annual salary reference records. The main biography brings together the wider career and its sources.

Life and register readings

Ziyaeddin Efendi was born in Dagistan in 1881/82 (AH 1299); the father's occupation was "Meclis-i Kebir-i Maarif azası". At about 20, in 1902/03, Ziyaeddin began work, on a first salary of 400 kuruş. The first annual entry, for 1902/03, places Ziyaeddin in Beyoğlu as Telgraf ve Posta Merkezi Muhaberat-ı Ecnebiye memuru, where the entries run to 1905/06. Alongside, the lists for 1905/06 give a second post, in Istanbul as Dersaadet Postahanesi Mekatib-i Mevrude memuru.

The salary never rose above the first in the lists, 400 kuruş a month in 1902/03, in Beyoğlu, when 44 per cent of paid officials earned less. The final annual entry is for 1905/06.

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.
