Life and register readings
Hüseyin Remzi Efendi was born in Batumi (Batum) in 1863/64 (AH 1280). Work began in Akdağmadeni (Akdağ) in 1902/03, at about 39, on a first salary of 900 kuruş. Few began so late; fewer than 4 per cent of the 5,664 officials whose age at first work is known started at 39 or older. The first annual entry, for 1902/03, places Hüseyin Remzi in Akdağmadeni as Şer‘iyye naibi, where the entries run to 1904/05. For 1905 to 1907 the lists have no entry. The last posts were in Nea Zichni in 1907/08 and Kızılcahamam (Yabanabad) in 1910/11. The lists have no entry for 1908 to 1910.
The salary went from 900 kuruş a month in 1902/03 to 1,250 in 1910/11, the peak, in Kızılcahamam, when 78 per cent of paid officials earned less. Over four years the salaries add up to 47,400 kuruş, 2.3 times what an official on the median salary earned. The final annual entry is for 1910/11.
