Charles "Charlie" Fincher (23 January 1892 — 25 April 1915) was an Australian rules footballer who played with South Melbourne in the Victorian Football League (VFL), and with Essendon Town Football Club in the Victorian Football Association (VFA). A private in the First AIF, he was killed in action, shot by a bullet, as he reached the beach, during the very first landings at Gallipoli on 25 April 1915.〔(Lane, Daniel, "ANZAC hero Ted Larkin: The greatest sacrifice of all", ''The Sydney Morning Herald'', (18 April 2015). )〕〔Despite various suggestions given over time, related to particular individuals, it is clear that, because, at least, six former VFL footballers were killed during the chaos of the landing at Anzac Cove — Rupert Balfe (University, Alan Cordner (Geelong and Collingwood), Claude Crowl (St Kilda), Charlie Fincher (South Melbourne), Fen McDonald (Carlton and Melbourne), and Joe Pearce (Melbourne) — it can never be definitively argued that one of these men was "the first VFL footballer killed in the First World War".〕 == Family == Second eldest of the nine children (six boys and three girls) of George Francis Fincher and Margaret Fincher, née Nicoll, he was born in Footscray, Victoria on 23 January 1892. The family moved to Lauriston, near Kyneton, Victoria. He attended Lauriston State School.
