The Ven. William Vyse (b Sambrook 11 February 1710 – d Birmingham 29 June 1770) was an English churchman, Archdeacon of Salop from 13 March 1735 until his death. The family's earlier history in Staffordshire is outlined by the editor of Erdeswicke. Vyse was educated at Pembroke College, Oxford, matriculating in 1727 and graduating B.A. in 1730. He held the living of St Philip, Birmingham and became Treasurer of Lichfield Cathedral in 1734. One of the "Lichfield literati", an example of his skills in improvised verse is preserved by Anna Seward.
