Life and register readings

Osman Feyzi Efendi was born in Kırşehir in 1863/64 (AH 1280). At about 20, in 1883/84, Osman Feyzi began work in Tosya. The annual lists begin in 1883/84, with Osman Feyzi as Bidayet mahkemesi mülazımı in Tosya. Alongside, the lists for 1892 to 1903 give a second post, in a post with no place named as Nahiye müdür vekili. Alongside, the lists for 1902/03 give a second post, in Jeddah as Kaymakam vekili. Alongside, the lists for 1902 to 1905 give a second post, in Akşehir as a district governor (Kaymakam). Alongside, the lists for 1904 to 1907 give a second post, in Boyabat as Kaymakam. Alongside, the lists for 1906 to 1909 give a second post, in Osmancik as Kaymakam. Alongside, the lists for 1908 to 1911 give a second post, in Simav as Kaymakam. Alongside, the lists for 1910/11 give a second post, in Suşehri as Kaymakam. Seven places in all, a number reached by fewer than 6 per cent of the 6,605 officials with a place of service.

The salary went from 360 kuruş a month in 1886/87 to 1,500 in 1909/10, the peak, as Kaymakam in Simav, when four in five paid officials earned less. The final annual entry is for 1910/11.
