Thanks.  Although Edward was married in Dudley, 16 MAR 1833 Saint Thomas, Dudley, Worcester, England the details off IGI he was born Birmingham
which was Warwickshire Dudley at the time was Worcestershire.

I now konow the witnesses at Edward and Anns wedding one was Sarah Archer,Anns mum  and the other was someone called Thomas Allen who I've since found out was a professional witness so that did'nt help So where to look now I'm not sure  maybe as Nick29 posted I may have to go through IGI records for Birmingham.  On 1841 census he would be born c1816 but on 1851 which is transcribed wrong as Edward Richard Mittor not Mitton he would be born  c1812.  Does anyone know where I would have to go to look at IGI microfiche for Birmingham please as his birth is not yet transcribed on the online IGI.  Also would there be bishops transripts for those years baptisms does anybody know please?  Or are bishops transripts just for marriages?   Thanks for your interest.

The LDS Web Site has all the information you need.  Hover your mouse over Search Records then select Library Catalog.  This brings up a new page, and on there you should click on Place Search.

When you have found the films you want, make a note of the film numbers, and then find your nearest LDS Centre (you can search for that under the Library tag), where you can reserve the film(s) to view.  I should warn you that some films can take up to 3 months to arrive, depending on the number of people who have requested it.  If you want to view the films faster, I believe the LDS Centre in Central London has virtually a full set of films.

Thanks Nick29 I'll take a look.

On the database I have, Edward Richard Mytton is recorded as being born 1812 Birmingham.
On the 1841 census the age of anyone over 15 years was usually rounded down to the nearest five, so someone aged 24 would be recorded as 20, someone aged 27 recorded as 25.

Birtmingham Central Library has baptisms on microfiche.

The Mitton/Mytton database, containing hundreds of names, was given to me a number of years ago when I was trying to find my Mytton ancestors.  If you want anyone else looked up please ask.  The source of the information is IGI and BMD registers, originally held at Somerset House.

Thanks for that so I should be looking at his birth as 1812 rather than 1816 maybe do you think.  Have spent most of day going through indexs for his death but so far at 1906 which would make him 96 but still no luck also I haven't seen his wife Anne in deaths either.  I think Edwards going to be hard to  pin down. Thanks for your interest.  Do you have Myttons in your family then  Keziahemm. But I shall carry on searching.

Hi Jayne

Is he consistent with his age in census, apart from 1841?  Looking for death of Edward, which census did he last appear in?

Post details on the Warwickshire board, someone may have access to parish registers, put a link back to this post.

My maternal great grandmother was a Mytton, her family came from Herefordshire.

Thanks  Keziahemm

I will put this on Warwick one later when I get time but somebody has given me an interesting thought

Louisa Mitton (1808) and Thomas Henry Mitton (1815) were children of Richard and Ellen Mitton. They had 8 children listed in the IGI but there is a gap between Jane (1809) and Thos (1815).
It was common to use the father`s Christian name (Richard) for one of the children.  I already new about this family all births on IGI and have them on unproven tree. This is the e mail isent back to him

I already have Richard and Ellen on my unproven tree. On the address on my husbands grandad Albert Henry Myttons marriage it wasn't a family home it was aThomas Victor Cox ( My husbands aunty remembers the Cox's as family friends)and family living there on the electoral roll and before 1911 we struggled to find Alberts parents as Ruth his mum had told so many fibs particularly on his birth cert, Anyway in desperation I did the Cox's tree futher back at the parents home of Thomas Victor Cox Chares Cox been the head on the 1891 census Thomas is 14 years old but there is a visitor to the house an Emily Ann Mytton, so I looked further at her life thinking this must be the connection she never married Cornelius Mitton (its a long story) but used his surname calling herself his wife. Richard and Helen were his grandparents. His mother Martha Turner Mittons parents she married another Mitton Edward born 1801, (hes the brother of the one I have been trying to prove is the father so maybe I've been barking up the wrong tree) Kerry, Montgomeryshire. So if your theory is right that would make Edward Richard Mitton born 1812 the uncle of Cornelius. Now I just need to prove it. Typical if your right thats the one thats going to be missing on IGI but it does tell me they were methodists at Cherry Street Wesyleyan methodist in Birmingham. Ooh now at least maybe I can find some info don't know where will have to find out. Thanks for your help .

Hi All
I've been doing my tree for about 9 years but have had a lot of problems with my husbands family tree mainly because my husbands great nan Ruth Mytton the daughter of Ebenezer Mytton from Birmingham had my husbands grandad out of wedlock and fibbed on his birth cert. All became clear with the 1911 census. I have managed to get as far back as Edward Richard Mitton later spelling it Mytton born 1812 Birmingham he married Ann Harper Archer in 1833 at St Thomas's Dudley a kind lady checked Dudley archives  whilst she was there for me but on the record its Anns mother as a witness and someone called Thomas Allen who it turns out was a professional witness so that didn't give me any clues.  I think this might be the correct family 

Louisa Mitton (1808) and Thomas Henry Mitton (1815) were children of Richard and Ellen Mitton. They had 8 children listed in the IGI but there is a gap between Jane (1809) and Thos (1815).
All children on IGI but how can I find out about Edward please?  Why would he be missed off both birth and christening records when all others were on.  The church was Weseleyan Methodist church cherry street Birmingham.
Any ideas as to where I look gratefully excepted.  I have started a Mytton of Aston webpage but am keen not to put on anything thats not proven or anyone not living.  This is my website so far but would be lovely to get further back.

unfortunately I don't live in Birmingham anymore I'm now in Hull so research is  difficult.  So look forward to any ideas .
