From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:

  Thomas
     twin, one of the twelve (Matt. 10:3; Mark 3:18, etc.). He was
     also called Didymus (John 11:16; 20:24), which is the Greek
     equivalent of the Hebrew name. All we know regarding him is
     recorded in the fourth Gospel (John 11:15, 16; 14:4, 5; 20:24,
     25, 26-29). From the circumstance that in the lists of the
     apostles he is always mentioned along with Matthew, who was the
     son of Alphaeus (Mark 3:18), and that these two are always
     followed by James, who was also the son of Alphaeus, it has been
     supposed that these three, Matthew, Thomas, and James, were
     brothers.
