The bodies of nine-year-old twins Thomas and Paddy O'Driscoll have been removed from their home at Deerpark in Charleville for post-mortem examinations at Cork University Hospital.
The brothers bodies were found stabbed in their house last night.
The boys' parents, Helen and Thomas, were comforted by family members and friends as the bodies were removed in two hearses.
The Deputy State Pathologist Dr Michael Curtis has completed his preliminary examination at the scene.
The house remains sealed-off pending a technical examination
Dr Curtis will conduct the post-mortem examinations on the bodies of the two boys and on the body of their older brother Jonathan.
The elder brother was found dead yesterday evening by the bank of a river in Buttevant, around 15km away from the family home.
Foul play is not suspected in his death.
Gardaí are not understood to be looking for anybody else in connection with the deaths of the two boys but they are appealing for witnesses to contact them.
The twins attended Banogue National School and were in third class.
The school has issued a statement paying tribute to the boys and stating its shock and sadness at their deaths.
"This is a terrible tragedy for the family, the school and the whole community. We are deeply saddened by this event," said principal teacher Sheila Cagney.
"Our sympathy and thoughts are with the family and friends at this terrible time," she said.
Ms Cagney described both boys as loving, energetic and full of fun. The boys had been pupils in the school for just over a year.
She said the focus of the staff at this time was on the pupils in the school who are trying to come to terms with the loss of young friends.
"We will help the children to the best of our ability," said Ms Cagney.
"We are receiving support from the National Education Psychological Service who will be at the school today to support staff on dealing with the tragedy."
