Life and register readings
The life of Ömer Lütfi Efendi began in Gelibolu in 1863/64 (AH 1280); the father's occupation was "Bahriye binbaşısı". At about 19, in 1882/83, Ömer Lütfi began work in Gelibolu. The annual lists begin in 1882/83, with Ömer Lütfi as a candidate official (Mülazım) and no place named. The lists have no entry for 1889 to 1895. Alongside, the lists for 1896 to 1901 give a second post, in Bethlehem as Duyun-ı Umumiye Memuru.
Pay rose from 200 kuruş a month in 1883/84 to a peak of 350 in 1900/01, in Bethlehem, when 39 per cent of paid officials earned less. In all, 11 years of salary come to 33,000 kuruş, 61 per cent of what an official on the median salary earned in those years. The final annual entry is for 1900/01.
