Have you tried searching using only forename and birth info?

And using forename other than the first one?

FMP version...

Household transcription
1911 census

There does not appear to be a birth registered for a Sidney/Sydney Craik between 1902 and 1910 so this might very well be him.

Have you checked Ada Catherine's parents just in case they are staying there and surname mis-recorded?

The 1911 does say Ada had 5 children, all still alive. Husband seems to be a Ship's Steward from the image:

Hi
The 1911 Census lists Ada Catherine Craik (wife 37), Alex John Brodie Craik (son 12), Margaret Annie Craik (Dau 11) and Mathew James Craik (son 6) in West Derby.
Ada's youngest daughter, Eileen Ada Isobel Craik, b Feb 1907 Age 4 is missing from the 1911 Census record. Also missing is Mathew's twin brother William Sydney Craik b Jun 1904 age 6.

I'm hoping that someone can help me locate them. It's strange that two young children do not appear in the Census.
Thanks in advance
Martin
