Life#
Osman Hayri Efendi was born in Bursa in 1865/66 (AH 1282). The record gives the community as Muslim (Müslüman), the nationality as Turkish and the father's occupation as imam.
Schooling recorded: Rüşdiye Mektebi, with 7 years of schooling recorded. The record marks no qualification (diploma, certificate, training or decoration). Languages recorded, with the skill words of the record: Turkish, with Kitabet.
First work is recorded in Bursa in 1887/88 (AH 1305). The official was then about 22 years old. The record gives 2 years of unpaid apprenticeship (mülazemet) before the first salary. The first-salary field gives 400 kuruş a month. At the first annual entry, in 1889/90, the official was about 24 years old.
The first annual entry, for 1889/90, shows Muhabere Memuru in Sjenica (Seniçe), with 400 kuruş a month. In 1893/94 the record shows Muhabere Memuru in Bandırma, with 400 kuruş a month (before: Muhabere Memuru in Sjenica). In 1895/96 the record shows 3. Müdür in Vamos, the salary going from 400 to 600 kuruş a month (before: Muhabere Memuru in Bandırma).
The highest salary, 600 kuruş a month, is first recorded in 1895/96 as 3. Müdür. 59 per cent of the other officials with a recorded salary that year earned less. The median salary of all officials that year was 500 kuruş. Over 7 years with a salary the median is 400 kuruş a month, with 1 rise and no cuts. The largest rise, 200 kuruş, is seen in 1895/96. From the first salary to the last the salary grew by 6.99 per cent a year on average.
A death is recorded under 1896/97 (AH 1314): the year of the annual list that holds the status word Vefat, not a date of death.
