Life and register readings
Mahmud Zülkif Bey was born in Harput in 1851/52 (AH 1268); the father's occupation was "Dördüncü Ordu meclis kaymakamı". The first salary was 100 kuruş a month. The annual lists begin in 1873/74, with Mahmud Zülkif as Tahrirat kalemi muavini in Erzincan. The lists have no entry for 1874 to 1878. The annual lists then follow Mahmud Zülkif to Erzurum in 1878. Alongside, the lists for 1878 to 1886 give a second post, in Erzincan as Emaneten idare edilen aşar idaresi ikinci kâtibi. For 1886 to 1889 the lists have no entry. The last entries, from 1889 to 1898, name Mahmud Zülkif as Dördüncü Ordu levazım dairesi birinci şube mülazımı, with no place. The lists have no entry for 1890 to 1894. For 1898 to 1903 the lists have no entry. The lists give Vefat (death) for 1903/04 instead of a title.
The salary went from 200 kuruş a month in 1873/74 to 1,500 in 1878/79, the peak, in Erzincan, when 84 per cent of paid officials earned less. The final annual entry is for 1903/04.
