Şerafeddin Bey
Annual salary study and register readings
This study view uses the annual salary reference records. The main biography brings together the wider career and its sources.
Life and register readings
The life of Şerafeddin Bey began in Istanbul in 1870/71 (AH 1287); the father's occupation was "Suriye Arazi-i Seniyye Komisyonu arazi reisi". Şerafeddin began work in 1890/91, at about 20. The annual lists begin in 1890/91, with Şerafeddin as Mektubat Kalemi mülazımı and no place named. The lists give İstifa (resignation) for 1892/93 instead of a title.
The salary never rose above the first in the lists, 200 kuruş a month in 1891/92, when 14 per cent of paid officials earned less. The last annual entry is for 1892/93.
Places in order of time#
