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 MUHAMMED HAMDİ BEG began in Kirkuk (Kerkük) in 1868/69 (AH 1285). The schooling was at a school for young children (Sıbyan Mektebi).

MUHAMMED HAMDİ BEG began work in 1881/82, at about 14. The first annual entry, for 1881/82, places MUHAMMED HAMDİ BEG in Kirkuk, the birthplace, as mülazım (muhasebe kalemi), where the entries run to 1887/88. Alongside, the lists for 1887 to 1900 give a second post, in a post with no place named as ağnam katibi.

Pay rose from 360 kuruş a month in 1888/89 to a peak of 500 in 1892/93, as Reji Memuru, when 56 per cent of paid officials earned less. The last annual entry is for 1899/1900.

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.
