Life and register readings

Born in Bursa in 1868/69 (AH 1285), Sarkiz Şehirliyan Efendi came from the Hristiyan community. Sarkiz Şehirliyan began work in Bursa in 1893/94, at about 25. The annual lists begin in 1893/94, with Sarkiz Şehirliyan as Bursa gureba hastanesi tabib-i râbialığı; tabib-i râbi (fahri) in Bursa, the birthplace, where the entries run to 1904/05. Alongside, the lists for 1894/95 give a second post, in Kütahya as Kütahya tahaffuz hastanesi tebabeti (ilâveten). The last entry, for 1895/96, names Sarkiz Şehirliyan as Atranos kazası sıhhiye tabâbeti (ilâveten), with no place.

Pay rose from 150 kuruş a month in 1894/95 to a peak of 800 in 1904/05, in Bursa, when 76 per cent of paid officials earned less. The last annual entry is for 1904/05.
