Sadullah Efendi

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 Sadullah Efendi began in Dagistan in 1870/71 (AH 1287); the father's occupation was "Kafkasya eski reis-i uleması; Maarif Nezareti Meclis-i Kebir azası". Sadullah began work in Istanbul in 1893/94, at about 23. From the first annual entry, for 1893/94, to 1909/10, every annual entry places Sadullah in the same post, Şehremaneti Evzan İdaresi mülazımı, in Istanbul.

Pay rose from 200 kuruş a month in 1895/96 to a peak of 600 in 1909/10, in Istanbul, when half the paid officials earned less. The last annual entry is for 1909/10.

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.
