Mevlüd Efendi

Annual salary study and register readings

This study view uses the annual salary reference records. The main biography brings together the wider career and its sources.

Life and register readings

The life of Mevlüd Efendi began in Kırşehir in 1868/69 (AH 1285). Work began in 1894/95, at about 26. The annual lists begin in 1894/95, with Mevlüd as a candidate official (Mülazım) and no place named. Alongside, the lists for 1910/11 give a second post, in Kızılcahamam as Mal Muduru.

Pay rose from 250 kuruş a month in 1896/97 to a peak of 550 in 1910/11, as Mal Muduru in Kızılcahamam, when 52 per cent of paid officials earned less. The final annual entry is for 1910/11.

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.
