Could anyone with full membership to Ancestry find me any information please?

Frederic Birch (b.1895) was in the New Zealand Machine Gunner Corp in World war 1. I believe there is something called a 'nominal roll', which shows names of the men serving. And also if there was Charles Francis Carter there too.

Any help would be appreciated, thanks...I have also put this request on the 'Military Chat' board

I have found something on FMP.

Where was Frederick born?

When and where was Charles Francis Carter born?

Brilliant, that's my Charles Carter, thanks a ton Holly.

I was hoping he was in the same regiment as Frederic Birch, back to the drawing board :)

Really grateful

Oh jolly good!

Because it mentioned Portsmouth Hampshire, i didn't think he was your Frederick.
