Life and register readings

MHAMMETU SIDIK EFENDİ was born in Kirkuk (Kerkük) in 1869/70 (AH 1286). The schooling was at a school for young children (Sıbyan Mektebi). MHAMMETU SIDIK began work in Kirkuk in 1883/84, at about 15. The first annual entry, for 1883/84, places MHAMMETU SIDIK in Kirkuk, the birthplace, as tahrirat kalemi mülazımı, where the entries run to 1886/87. Alongside, the lists for 1886 to 1907 give a second post, in a post with no place named as nahiye katibi. Alongside, the lists for 1906/07 give a second post, in Kirkuk as muhasebe kalemi yevmiye katibi.

The salary went from 15 kuruş a month in 1884/85 to 230 in 1906/07, the peak, in Kirkuk, when 21 per cent of paid officials earned less. Over 22 years the salaries add up to 36,600 kuruş, 34 per cent of what an official on the median salary earned. The final annual entry is for 1906/07.
