Are you sure Fred emigrated in 1921?

His brothers had occupations farm labourers and....

COUPLAND Fred, single, farm hand, departed London on 3 Feb 1912 on the ATHENIC .  He was contracted to land at Hobart, Australia.

His name has been struck out as living with his family on the last available census for England which detailed his parents and siblings however he was employed as a farm hand on another farm.

I sourced my  Census response  from Freecen website which show a slightly different information to the above which is why I enquired as tio whether Fred was a twin and also it states father as Abraham.
