Started this thread yesterday but got stuck ....

Hi I have found my grandpas family back to 1891 cencus where William Hodges ( 1848 born Twerton Somerset) is living with wife and children and his brother Henry Hodges in Bristol ( also Twerton 1846c) . I just can't find the brothers on earlier census records where I was hoping to find their parents ...Has anyone any ideas on why this would be ?...
