Life and register readings
The life of Mustafa Efendi began in Kemaliye (Eğin); the father's occupation was "Postahane odacısı". The annual lists begin in 1865/66 (AH 1282), with Mustafa as Postahane Evrak-ı Sıhhiye Mukayyidi in Istanbul, where the entries run to 1878/79, with a rise to Pul Basmemuru in 1871/72. For 1866 to 1869 and 1877 to 1878 the lists have no entry. Alongside, the lists for 1878 to 1890 give a second post, in a post with no place named as açığa alınma (Azil). The lists have no entry for 1880 to 1889.
The salary went from 400 kuruş a month in 1865/66 to 1,050 in 1875/76, the peak, as Pul Basmemuru in Istanbul, when four in five paid officials earned less. The peak lasted a single year; the next list gives 1,000 kuruş. In all, six years of salary come to 48,240 kuruş, 1.6 times what an official on the median salary earned in those years. The last annual entry is for 1889/90.
