Records for the AIF are split between the Australian War memorial and the National Australian Archives. You can buy the records online or do so by mail and there is also a lot of info that can be seen online but it's still best to pay for the records because not all useful and usable genie info is online. http://www.awm.gov.au/ Go to 'Biographical Databases' and enter the name and the conflict although the only Charles Henry Mathews who died and who that appears there has a different service number and battalion and the only person with the number of 766 is a Charles Henry Matthew and again he wasn't from that battalion. More research needed by the sounds of it to find the right person.
