Mahmut Efendi

Birthplace: bagdat Observed AH 1279–1287 (1862–1871)

Recovered annual record
A short account from recorded fields

Mahmut Efendi was born in Bagdat in AH 1258 (1842–1843). Recorded schooling includes 4 years at Sibyan Mektebi. First work is recorded in Bagdat in AH 1274 (1857–1858), 16 AH years after the recorded birth year, with “Telgraf” as first-job wording. The surviving career record covers 9 distinct AH years in AH 1279–1287 (1862–1871); it begins with Muhabere Memuru in Bagdat (500 kuruş monthly). 2. Mudur appears later, in AH 1286 (1869–1870), with 1,000 kuruş monthly. Recorded language competency: Turkish: Kitabet (writing); Arabic: kitabet; Persian: tekellum. Later annual personnel extract marks a criminal-record indicator in AH 1279–1287 (1862–1871); this is not a lifetime verdict.

First work is separately recorded at AH 1274 (1857–1858) in Bagdat (Telgraf). The first-salary field is 500 kuruş; it is not a dated point on this curve.

Monthly nominal assigned amounts, not confirmed cash payments. Lines connect consecutive AH years only; hollow points mean salary not recorded. Competing entries in one AH year remain separate points, without a unique pay-change line. Gregorian spans describe whole AH years; source Gregorian labels remain separate evidence.

Compare all recorded title, place and salary changes

Each comparison uses the preceding surviving entry.

  1. Salary 500 to 960 kuruş +460 (+92%)

  2. Title Muhabere Memuru → 2. Mudur

    Locality bagdat → hindiyye

    Salary 960 to 1,000 kuruş +40 (+4.17%)

  3. Locality hindiyye → kizilrebat

A title change is not automatically a promotion; a locality change is not a reconstructed journey.

The first-work date may concern apprenticeship, paid instruction or earlier state service. The first-salary amount is a separate inherited field; their presence together does not prove that payment began on this date. Neither is the first positive annual salary observation.

Kitabet (writing)
Arabic
kitabet
Persian
tekellum

Only recorded terms are shown. Omitted language fields mean not recorded; they do not establish that the official lacked a language. Original competency wording is preserved; Kitabet (writing), Tekellum (speaking) and Asina (familiarity) are cautious historical glosses, not modern proficiency levels. Workbook language notes remain separately source-linked in the additional evidence. Read the terminology note.

Evidence & edition

Personnel records and their differences

How to read the dates, birth-year differences and salaries

AH years are the ordering clock. Birth-year differences subtract uncontested AH birth and event year numbers; they are not exact ages or birthdays. Separately recorded first-job age fields can use a different or unresolved convention and are not substituted into this calculation. Gregorian spans identify the calendar years touched by the whole AH year, using the tabular Islamic calendar. Original source Gregorian labels remain separate evidence. The first-work field may concern apprenticeship, paid instruction or earlier state service, and does not establish the beginning of PT service.

Salaries are monthly nominal assigned amounts, not confirmed cash disbursements. Differences between annual entries are not dated promotions or transfers.

How to read this dossier

The website joins the exact archival identity across editions. Names are attributes and never merge records. No annual gap is filled from another extract. Geographic alternatives, missing values and differences remain evidence rather than silent corrections.
