Life and register readings

MUSTAFA ASIM EFENDĠ was born in Antalya in 1862/63 (AH 1279). The first salary was 0 kuruş a month. The annual lists begin in 1876/77, with MUSTAFA ASIM EFENDĠ as Temyiz meclisi istintak dairesi müstantık muavini and no place named. Alongside, the lists for 1892 to 1895 give a second post, in Beirut as Ziraat Bankası şube memuru. The lists have no entry for 1895 to 1898. The annual lists then follow MUSTAFA ASIM EFENDĠ to Ankara in 1898/99. Alongside, the lists for 1898 to 1902 give a second post, in Thessaloniki as Ziraat Bankası şube memuru. The last post was in Edirne in 1902/03.

The salary went from 300 kuruş a month in 1876/77 to 1,500 in 1898/99, the peak, in Thessaloniki, when nine in ten paid officials earned less. Over 23 years the salaries add up to 170,400 kuruş, 1.5 times what an official on the median salary earned. The last annual entry is for 1902/03.
