Life and register readings

Born in Burdur in 1864/65 (AH 1281), Yuvani Yaver Efendi was the child of a merchant (tüccar). The schooling was at a school for young children (Sıbyan Mektebi).

Yuvani Yaver began work in Burdur in 1880/81, at about 16. The annual lists begin in 1880/81, with Yuvani Yaver as Tahrirat Kalemi stajyeri in Burdur, the birthplace, where the entries run to 1885/86. Alongside, the lists for 1885/86 give a second post, in a post with no place named as Evrak mukayyidi.

The salary went from 50 kuruş a month in 1883/84 to 216 in 1885/86, the peak, when 16 per cent of paid officials earned less. Over three years the salaries add up to 4,392 kuruş, 30 per cent of what an official on the median salary earned. The final annual entry is for 1885/86.
