Life and register readings
Şevki Şevket Efendi was born in Istanbul; the father was a tradesman (esnaf). Work began in 1897/98 (AH 1315), on a first salary of 20 kuruş. The first annual entry, for 1897/98, names Şevki Şevket as kalem memuru, with no place, with a rise to official (Memur) in 1908/09 and to kalem memuru in 1911/12.
The salary went from 20 kuruş a month in 1897/98 to 600 in 1911/12, the peak, when 31 per cent of paid officials earned less. Over 15 years the salaries add up to 30,600 kuruş, 36 per cent of what an official on the median salary earned. The final annual entry is for 1911/12.
