Life and register readings

Mustafa Remzi Efendi was born in Mecca (Mekke) in 1884/85 (AH 1302); the father's occupation was "Hicaz Vilayeti Muhasebe Kalemi Eşvan mukayyidi refiki". The annual lists begin in 1901/02, with Mustafa Remzi as Muhasebe kalemi görevlisi and no place named.

Pay rose from 40 kuruş a month in 1901/02 to a peak of 140 in 1906/07, when one in ten paid officials earned less. In all, eight years of salary come to 9,600 kuruş, 23 per cent of what an official on the median salary earned in those years. The final annual entry is for 1908/09.

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.
