Life and register readings
The life of Mustafa Efendi began in Ürgüp in 1855/56 (AH 1272); the father's occupation was "Tacir". Mustafa began work in 1879/80, at about 24, on a first salary of 333 kuruş. The annual lists begin in 1879/80, with Mustafa as a customs official (Rüsumat Memuru) and no place named, with a rise to official (Memur) in 1882/83. The lists have no entry for 1884 to 1931. Few careers in the lists are as long; 46 of the 8,239 officials have entries spanning 54 years or more.
Pay rose from 333 kuruş a month in 1879/80 to a peak of 500 in 1882/83, as Memur, when 59 per cent of paid officials earned less. The last annual entry is for 1931/32.
