Life#
İzzet Şevki Efendi was born in Kemaliye (Eğin) in 1845 (AH 1261). The record gives the community as Muslim (Müslüman) and the nationality as Turkish.

First work is recorded in Istanbul in 1867/68 (AH 1284). The official was then about 22 years old. The record gives 2 years of unpaid apprenticeship (mülazemet) before the first salary. The first-salary field gives 400 kuruş a month. At the first annual entry, in 1869/70, the official was about 24 years old.
The first annual entry, for 1869/70, shows Muhabere Memuru in Adana, with 400 kuruş a month. In 1874/75 the record shows Muhabere Memuru in Isparta, with 400 kuruş a month (before: Muhabere Memuru in Adana).
