DO NOT fill in any other fields. Then hit the search button and scroll down to the foot of the results.

If you look for the parents in later census, if the siblings are young enough they may still be with them on the 1851.
If they are older, look for possible marriages for them or simply look for them under their own names.

If you mean looking back in time, then you will need to look at parish records for baptisms/marriages pre 1837.
