Life and register readings

Seyyid Ali Efendi was born in Kemah in 1854/55 (AH 1271) into the İslam community. The annual lists begin in 1877/78, with Ali as Kadı yardımcısı and no place named. The lists have no entry for 1878 to 1880 and 1881 to 1883. Ali then moved to Trabzon, Mitrovica (Mitroviça) and Berane from 1883 to 1888. For 1884 to 1886 and 1888 to 1890 the lists have no entry. The last post was in Midyat in 1890/91.

Pay rose from 900 kuruş a month in 1877/78 to a peak of 1,250 in 1887/88, in Berane, when 84 per cent of paid officials earned less. That salary was paid for a single year, and the next list gives 1,150 kuruş. In all, five years of salary come to 51,600 kuruş, 2.1 times what an official on the median salary earned in those years. The final annual entry is for 1890/91.
