Lancashire BMD has a death registration for Edmund Barton in 1846, Mellor sub-district (same sub-district where the children's births were registered), age 73. FreeBMD shows the death was registered in the Oct-Dec quarter, Blackburn district. It's possible that his death certificate might give some information as to how he was related to Thomas but quite possible it won't. I can't see a burial for Edmund on Lancs OPC, nor a will on the Lancashire will search site.
There seem to be a lot of Edmund Bartons around, but I see that Lancs OPC has the baptism of an Edward Barton 24 Jun 1814 at St Michael, Kirkham, son of Edmond Barton and Ellen, abode Lea, occupation husbandman. I wonder if this is the same family?
