I have found the death of Edwin/Edward Brain. He was registered under the name Edwin, which was his baptism name. He died in 1898 age 54 Q2 Vol 9c page 101 Registered in Barnsley Yorkshire.

I also found Jonas in 1901, which gave me another surprise. Must be one of those lucky days.

In 1901 Jonas Brain age 12 and his brother Ernest age 17(Coal Worker) are living with George Good and his family. George was born in Gloucestershire and his wife in Wales. The address they are living at is in Monk Bretton Yorkshire.
Now comes the surprise. George states that they two lads are his half brothers!!!!!
Jonas and Ernest Brain's mother Tryphena's maiden name was Goode. I wonder if George is actually her son?
