Life and register readings
Mehmet Tevfik Efendi was born in Bosna in 1877/78 (AH 1294); the father's occupation was "Fatih hocası". At about 12, in 1888/89, Mehmet Tevfik began work. Few began so young; fewer than 3 per cent of the 5,664 officials whose age at first work is known started at 12 or younger. The annual lists begin in 1888/89, with Mehmet Tevfik as Tophane-i Âmire İdadî Birinci Sanayi Alayı gönüllüsü and no place named. Alongside, the lists for 1904/05 give a second post, in Istanbul as Telgraf merkezi muhabere memuru.
Pay rose from 285 kuruş a month in 1903/04 to a peak of 380 in 1904/05, when 41 per cent of paid officials earned less. The final annual entry is for 1904/05.
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.
