Birmingham Parish Records

I am trying to find the marriage of a Edwin Coldrick to a Emily ?

Edwin, b1835 was married to Mary Ann Taylor, b1832, who died in 1864, they married in March 1853.
Edwin must have then re-married as I have him with new wife Emily on census's from 1971 onwards.

Also I have real difficulty finding any of my relatives on familysearch, can anyone tell me why there doesn't seem to be many birmingham records on there. Or can anyone tell me where I could find birmingham parish records. I do have access to warwickshirebdm, & Ancestry but not alot on there either.

I also would love to find Edwin's birth record or Edwin with his family on the 1841 census, but cannot find them at all. There have been various spellings of his surname, as Colderick, Golderick, etc.

Many thanks if anoyone can help me with my search or just offer me some advice on where to look.

David:

Edwin was born Ledbury, Herefordshire.
Mary Ann was born Tenbury Wells, Worcestershire.

Both their dates of births are from Census returns, and I have been looking either side of 1835 for Edwin, with no luck.

Thanks for all that work, I will definately look at the 1841 census named woodrick.

Its always great for someone to look for you, as I thought I had covered all the different variations of Coldrick - but obviously not!!!

Many thanks, Angi
