Life and register readings
Born in Aleppo (Halep) in 1873/74 (AH 1290), Vasil Efendi came from the Katolik community; the father was a teacher (muallim). Work began in Aleppo in 1894/95, at about 21. The annual lists begin in 1894/95, with Vasil as Düyun-ı Umumiye Nezareti Muhasebe Kalemi hizmeti in Aleppo, the birthplace. At the same time, from 1895 to 1899, the lists also place Vasil in a post with no place named as Memleha vezne kâtipliği. Alongside, the lists for 1898 to 1901 give a second post, in Arsuz as Düyun-ı Umumiye memurluğu. Alongside, the lists for 1900/01 give a second post, in a post with no place named as Memleha tezkire kâtipliği.
The salary went from 350 kuruş a month in 1895/96 to 400 in 1900/01, the peak, when 45 per cent of paid officials earned less. The final annual entry is for 1900/01.
