Life and register readings

Born in Bursa in 1878 (AH 1295), Süleyman Salahaddin Bey came from the İslam community; the father's occupation was "Askeri şâhâne binbaşısı". At about 25, in 1903/04, Süleyman Salahaddin began work, on a first salary of 300 kuruş. The first annual entry, for 1903/04, names Süleyman Salahaddin as (Okunamadı)mevki kitâbet ve anbarcılığı, with no place. For 1906 to 1908 the lists have no entry.

Pay rose from 300 kuruş a month in 1903/04 to a peak of 600 in 1909/10, when half the paid officials earned less. The final annual entry is for 1909/10.

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.
