Life and register readings

Salih Vahid Efendi was born in Bosna in 1880/81 (AH 1298); the father's occupation was "Emlak sahibi". Work began in 1894/95, at about 14. The annual lists begin in 1894/95, with Salih Vahid as Bidayet Mahkemesi Kalemi mülazımı and no place named. Salih Vahid then moved to Kula in 1895/96. The lists have no entry for 1897 to 1899. Alongside, the lists for 1899 to 1907 give a second post, in Kırkağaç as Mal müdür muavini. Alongside, the lists for 1906 to 1908 give a second post, in a post with no place named as Ziraat Bankası Sandığı muhasebe kâtibi refakati. Alongside, the lists for 1907 to 1911 give a second post, in Tuna as Ziraat Bankası Sandığı muhasebe kâtibi. Alongside, the lists for 1910 to 1911 give a second post, in a post with no place named as Maliye Nezareti Vilayet Hesabat Kalemi birinci sınıf kâtibi.

The salary went from 200 kuruş a month in 1899/1900 to 1,500 in 1911, the peak, when 73 per cent of paid officials earned less. The final annual entry is for 1911.

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.
