Annual salary study and register readings
This study view uses the annual salary reference records. The main biography brings together the wider career and its sources.
Life and register readings
The life of Nazif Efendi began in Travnik in 1855/56 (AH 1272). The schooling was at a school for young children (Sıbyan Mektebi). Work began in Van in 1886/87, at about 31, on a first salary of 220 kuruş. The annual lists begin in 1886/87, with Nazif as Van Rüsûmât Müdürlüğü muhafaza memuru in Van, where the entries run to 1888/89. Alongside, the lists for 1888 to 1905 give a second post, in a post with no place named as Rüsûmât Muhafaza İdaresi mülazımı. The farthest post, Van, lay about 2,250 km from Travnik, and fewer than 3 per cent of the 5,339 officials with a known birthplace and place of service served as far from the birthplace.
The salary went from 220 kuruş a month in 1886/87 to 400 in 1904/05, the peak, when 42 per cent of paid officials earned less. In all, 15 years of salary come to 52,320 kuruş, 72 per cent of what an official on the median salary earned in those years. The last annual entry is for 1904/05.
