Sub registrar office keeps only copy of sale deed in record, no other details. May be sale deed is not duly drafted and missed above details which you are looking for.
And why you need theses information. Your ownership is secure as property is purchased through registered sale deed.
If the same is not provided in second appeal you need to Approach the HC in writ petition
As vendor family is objecting the sale deed saying fraudulently & impersonation obtained and not allowing for mutation.

You may get the same from the register where these sale deed entered in the Registrar Office but if the same has not been given in Sale Deed then where it will come , not at all , this should be seen at the time of going to the sale deed that all the required information has been correctly filled or not , they simply require the person and his signature with full address.
You are in possession of property since 2000. Anyhow, your ownership cannot be questioned. Witness address is missing but his digital picture along with signature and thumb impression exits in sale deed and failure to mention previous sale details is just a drafting mistake. Merely on these points, registered document cannot be consider forged.
once sale deed is executed duly stamped and registered your father would be absolute owner of property
2) mutation does not confer title to property
3) it is only entry in revenue records for payment of property taxes
4) burden of proof is upon vendor family to prove sale deed executed fraudulently
Then civil suit is only remedy for establishing title
Since sale deed is registered you can get mutation on same the officer has to pass an order of mutation if they claim it as fraudulent they have to give evidence of same.
There is no time limit for filing mutation application.
Any person acquiring an interest in a holding or a part thereof by any means/instruments, may file a petition in Form-IA in the office of the Circle Officer in whose jurisdiction the holding or a part thereof is situated for mutation of his name in respect of that land.
If the copy held by the sub-registrar's office shows nothing than what is present there in that document, you cannot get anything more even by filing of plenty of appeals.
The vendor details may be found in the registered sale deed in the name of vendor itself.
The vendor cannot raise any objection on this at this stage especially after the passage of two decades on this.
You may approach the Tehsildar for mutation, let them say that there is an objection to this after which you may resort to legal action on this.
