I have to agree with Andy that they are most likely the same child on census 1871 and 1881.

The enumerator may have been having a bad day in 1871 or have been deaf ?

The ages are right and the birthplace.

And where was Cecily on 1871?

I am with Andy on this one.

Could be the census enumerator simply got it wrong. I can't see Cecily on the 1871 census. All of the other children havr birth records as well, but no Sinclair

EDIT Thanks FBG, geat minds and all that!
