1881 Census lookup request

Hello all
I'm wondering if someone could do a lookup for me on the 1881 and 1891 Census. I was using a wonderful free 1881 census online service, but wouldn't you know, it got taken down!!

I've just discovered that my great great grandmother may have had more siblings than I originally thought.

I've found Jane Bell, born Blencogo, Cumberland in both the 1881 and 1891 census living in Liverpool. I also found her younger sister, Mary Bell, born Kelsick, and her mother Mary Bell, born Southerfield, again both Cumberland, also living in Liverpool in both census. I've also found a brother Benjamin, born Longrigg, living in Liverpool in 1891. Mother is listed as a widow in 1881 and 1891 so perhaps father John Bell was deceased by then.

Now it seems there may have been two other brothers who are listed in IGI as having been christened in Bromfield, Cumberland.
They are:
David Bell, born in Cumberland, near Bromfield, about 1857
Joseph Bell, born in Cumberland, near Bromfield, about 1849

would appreciate if anyone could have a look in either 1881 or 1891 and see if they're about in Lancashire with the rest of the family.

Thanks
Keren
