Life and register readings
Mehmet Şerif Efendi was born in Kütahya in 1850/51 (AH 1267). The schooling was at Medrese, the Islamic college. Mehmet Şerif began work in Kütahya in 1869/70, at about 18, on a first salary of 50 kuruş. The first annual entry, for 1869/70, places Mehmet Şerif in Kütahya, the birthplace, as Zabıt Dairesi mukayyitliği, where the entries run to 1874/75. Alongside, the lists for 1874 to 1878 give a second post, in Simav in the Meclis-i Deavi kitabeti. The last post was in Kütahya again in 1879/80.
The salary went from 50 kuruş a month in 1869/70 to 300 in 1879/80, the peak, in Kütahya, when 27 per cent of paid officials earned less. Over eight years the salaries add up to 19,800 kuruş, 48 per cent of what an official on the median salary earned. The last annual entry is for 1879/80.
