Life and register readings

Tevekkelyan Arakel Efendi was born in Istanbul in 1849/50 (AH 1266). The annual lists begin in 1883/84, with Tevekkelyan Arakel as Hazine-i Hassa Emlak-ı Hümayun Hendesehanesi ressamı and no place named. The lists give Vefat (death) for 1892/93 instead of a title.

The salary went from 600 kuruş a month in 1883/84 to 750 in 1891/92, the peak, when 73 per cent of paid officials earned less. In all, ten years of salary come to 75,600 kuruş, 1.6 times what an official on the median salary earned in those years. The final annual entry is for 1892/93.

Places in order of time
