Life and register readings

Mehmed Necati Efendi was born in Bayburt in 1855/56 (AH 1272), into the İslam community. Work began in 1875/76, at about 19, on a first salary of 140 kuruş. The annual lists begin in 1875/76, with Mehmed Necati in the Bayburd Kasabası Meclis-i İdaresi tahrirat kitabeti and no place named. Alongside, the lists for 1875 to 1888 give a second post, in Bayburt as Meclis-i İdare tahrirat kâtibi. At the same time, from 1878 to 1888, the lists also place Mehmed Necati in a post with no place named as Bayburd Sancağı Tahrirat Odası evrak mukayyidliği.

The salary went from 140 kuruş a month in 1875/76 to 380 in 1882/83, the peak, when 45 per cent of paid officials earned less. Over 14 years the salaries add up to 45,780 kuruş, 66 per cent of what an official on the median salary earned. The final annual entry is for 1887/88.
