Hi Paul,
I guess you have noticed just how very common this name is !. However wouldn't his given age be older than 9 if he was born in 1861 abd died in 1877, or are you wondering if FreeBMD has an error ?
I've tried Ancestry free search page and cannot see him on 1881 Census atho have only briefly searched - I wonder if need to search 1881 census further for him perhaps under surname Brain as well as Harris/Harries etc ??

Here is 1871 Census from LDS:

LATER UPDATE FOR MY EASE OF READING,

thanks to the newly-added prior post I see this 1881 Census for this houshold; so missing Joseph as well as Edwin.

1881
William Brain abt 1841 Flaxeley Parish Head Westbury On Severn - East Dean, Gloucestershire
Mary Ann Brain abt 1842 Flaxeley Parish Wife Westbury On Severn - East Dean, Gloucestershire
Susan Hannah Brain abt 1865 Bilson Green East Dean Daughter Westbury On Severn - East Dean, Gloucestershire
Alfred Brain abt 1867 Bilson Green East Dean Son Westbury On Severn - East Dean, Gloucestershire
Matilda Brain abt 1869 Bilson Green East Dean Daughter Westbury On Severn - East Dean, Gloucestershire
Henry Brain abt 1871 Bilson Green East Dean Son Westbury On Severn - East Dean, Gloucestershire
Agness Brain abt 1873 Bilson Green East Dean Daughter Westbury On Severn - East Dean, Gloucestershire
Edith Brain abt 1875 Bilson Green East Dean Daughter Westbury On Severn - East Dean, Gloucestershire
Maria Brain abt 1878 Bilson Green East Dean Daughter Westbury On Severn - East Dean, Gloucestershire
Elizabeth Brain abt 1880 Bilson Green East Dean Daughter Westbury On Severn - East Dean, Gloucestershire

A long shot, perhaps, but if we find Joseph Brain maybe we'll be led to Edwin ??.
