Life and register readings

The life of Osman Nuri Efendi began in Başvartink in 1872/73 (AH 1289); the father's occupation was "Adliye Dairesi hademe müdür muavini". At about 21, in 1893/94, Osman Nuri began work. The annual lists begin in 1893/94, with Osman Nuri as Orman ve Maadin ve Ziraat Nezareti Heyet-i Fenniye Kalemi mülazımı and no place named. For 1894 to 1896 and 1906 to 1909 the lists have no entry.

Pay rose from 150 kuruş a month in 1896/97 to a peak of 800 in 1909/10, when 61 per cent of paid officials earned less. In all, 11 years of salary come to 39,600 kuruş, 70 per cent of what an official on the median salary earned in those years. The last annual entry is for 1909/10.

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.
