Life and register readings

The life of ŞÜKRÜ EFENDİ began in 1857/58 (AH 1274). ŞÜKRÜ began work in 1874/75, at about 16. The annual lists begin in 1874/75, with ŞÜKRÜ as Tahrirat Kalemi mülazımı and no place named. For 1878 to 1882 the lists have no entry. ŞÜKRÜ then moved to Çal and Menemen from 1882 to 1886. Alongside, the lists for 1885 to 1888 give a second post, in a post with no place named as Aşar kâtibi. Alongside, the lists for 1886/87 give a second post, in Veliko Tarnovo as Bidayet Mahkemesi müstantik muavini (İnfisal). Alongside, the lists for 1886 to 1888 give a second post, in Zlatograd as Bidayet Mahkemesi müstantik muavini. Next came Alexandroupoli (Dedeağaç) from 1888 to 1891. Alongside, the lists for 1893/94 give a second post, in Coke as Nahiye müdür vekili. Few officials served in as many places; fewer than 8 per cent of the 6,605 officials with a place of service did.

Pay rose from 300 kuruş a month in 1876/77 to a peak of 500 in 1893/94, as Nahiye Muduru, when 55 per cent of paid officials earned less. The last annual entry is for 1893/94.

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.
