Do you know for certain that they survived infancy?  Were they twins?

Have you looked for marriages for them on freebmd?    www.freebmd.org.uk

Have you looked for them on any census?    http://www.rootschat.com/links/01egx/

Hi--
   Not sure if they were twins--a sister, Mary, was born in 1813--big gap--1813 to 1819.
Yes, I did check the census. I did not check for marriages.
Thanks.
Stephen

Do you know for certain that they survived infancy?

Also - although both were baptised 1819 - they could have been born at any time prior to then.  Is any actual birthdate shown on the baptismal record
