Life and register readings
Mehmed Efendi was born in Kilis in 1875/76 (AH 1292). At about 22, in 1897/98, Mehmed began work, on a first salary of 180 kuruş. The annual lists begin in 1897/98, with Mehmed as İbtidai mektebi muallimi and no place named. Alongside, the lists for 1898 to 1907 give a second post, in İskenderun as İbtidai mektebi muallimi.
Pay rose from 180 kuruş a month in 1897/98 to a peak of 250 in 1906/07, in İskenderun, when 22 per cent of paid officials earned less. Over ten years the salaries add up to 22,440 kuruş, 45 per cent of what an official on the median salary earned. The final annual entry is for 1906/07.
