Life and register readings
Mehmed Rüşdü Efendi was born in Çemişgezek in 1882/83 (AH 1300). At about 24, in 1907/08, Mehmed Rüşdü began work. The annual lists begin in 1907/08, with Mehmed Rüşdü as Fahri maiyet memuru and no place named. Alongside, the lists for 1909 to 1912 give a second post, in Keban as a district governor (Kaymakam). Alongside, the lists for 1911/12 give a second post, in a post with no place named as Kaymakam. In place of a title the lists give Infisal for 1909/10.
The salary went from 120 kuruş a month in 1908/09 to 2,000 in 1909/10, the peak, as Kaymakam in Keban, when 86 per cent of paid officials earned less. Over five years the salaries add up to 97,440 kuruş, 2.6 times what an official on the median salary earned. The last annual entry is for 1911/12.
