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 İbrahim Hayri Efendi began in Mostar in 1856/57 (AH 1273); the father's occupation was "Vakıf muhasebecisi". Work began in Mostar in 1876/77, at about 19. The annual lists begin in 1876/77, with İbrahim Hayri as Tahrirat kalemi mülazımı in Mostar, the birthplace. For 1877 to 1881 the lists have no entry. From 1881 to 1896 the annual entries place İbrahim Hayri in Bursa.

The salary went from 100 kuruş a month in 1882/83 to 400 in 1895/96, the peak, in Bursa, when 44 per cent of paid officials earned less. In all, 14 years of salary come to 40,560 kuruş, 60 per cent of what an official on the median salary earned in those years. The final annual entry is for 1895/96.

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.
