ROGERS Thomas Cecil

Ron Rogers

master brummie
Could some kind person look up the absentee Voters Roll for Thomas Cecil Rogers,
He did volunteer for the army (the Worcestershire Regiment) but was discharged as having understated his age.(Service from oct 1915- April 1916) I am trying to find out if he re-enlisted in the army for service o/seas.
At the time of discharge (the first time) he gave his address as 143 waverley Road Small Heath and his next of kin as his mother Rosina Rogers

Thank you

Ron
