Life and register readings
The life of Ömer Şevki Efendi began in Giresun; the father's occupation was "Ekmekçi". From the first annual entry, for 1880/81 (AH 1298), to 1893/94, every annual entry places Ömer Şevki in the same post, Nüfus Kalemi mülazımı, in Giresun, the birthplace. The lists give Azil (dismissal) for 1886/87 instead of a title.
The salary went from 250 kuruş a month in 1882/83 to 350 in 1893/94, the peak, in Giresun, when 38 per cent of paid officials earned less. Over six years the salaries add up to 19,200 kuruş, 66 per cent of what an official on the median salary earned. The final annual entry is for 1893/94.
