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 Efendi began in Kırşehir in 1866/67 (AH 1283). The first salary was 0 kuruş a month. The annual lists begin in 1888/89, with İbrahim as Mektupçu kalemi memuru and no place named. In place of a title the lists give Infisal for 1905/06.

The salary went from 50 kuruş a month in 1888/89 to 550 in 1901/02, the peak, when 64 per cent of paid officials earned less. The final annual entry is for 1905/06.

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.
