If one of the boys is your direct ancestor, buy the birth certificate for £7 from GRO online when you will have both mother and fathers full names. From there you can find their marriage and buy the marriage cert which will give both fathers names and occupations and from there work backwards through census and certificates.

You may be able to find the birth cert ref for free on freebmd
