I have 2 brothers Benjamin Thwaites 1839 Islington and Rueben Thwaites 1840 Islington.

Thwaites is spelt Thwaite, Thwaits, or in the case of 1851 Shwaites

I have both brothers on the 1841 census ..Ruebin (as spelt) was 6 month old.
I also have both brothers in 1851 living at home as errand boys
Their father Thomas died in 1853 and mother Harriott died in 1860.
All their other 7 siblings were married by 1861. Benjamin also married in 1861 but not until sept quarter ..he married in Portsea, Hants. and died in 1866.

The gap I am trying to fill is where were the brothers in 1861 ??

Also the mystery is what happened to Rueben. I can´t find him at all apart from the 2 census´

I have found a birth for a Rueben Stephen Thwaites in Jan Q 1861 2 things make me unsure of this .....He wouldn´t have been 6mths on the 1841 and no other child had 2 names.

Can anybody find Rueben please
Thank you to all who look :-D :-D
