The guy that wrote the page Real linked needs to go re-read the scriptures. There is so much misinformation on the page making the entire document useless since it is based on a flawed foundation and crumbles the further it goes. I have yet to read a single document in support of the "two house" or "lost tribe" theories that weren't flawed from beginning to end.
For example
"And Israel said unto Joseph, Behold, I die: but God shall be with you, and bring you again unto the land of your fathers. Moreover I have given to thee one portion above thy brethren, which I took out of the hand of the Amorite with my sword and with my bow". GEN.48:21,22. So Israel blesses Joseph and gives him twice what his other brothers receive. As I name these two countries you will see that it probably is far more than twice. Also notice that Israel shall return to the home land sometime in the future. This means that they must leave in order to return. The Jews, or the nation of Judah, have NEVER left there homeland, except for a 70 year time period, while at this same time period, there were NO Israelites present. Only Israel was captured and taken away, to a foreign land and have not returned yet. "And Jacob called unto his sons, and said, Gather yourselves together, that I may tell you that which shall befall you in the last days".GEN.49:1."
I guess the Author didn't know the statement was made in Egypt and never heard of Moses and Exodus
Luke 2:36 Anna the prophetess was from the Tribe of Asher
Paul describes himself as an Israelite from the tribe of Benjamin in a number of places (Romans 11:1)
Peter is from the tribe of Simeon
Here is a list of hundreds and hundred of peoples thinking or claiming to be lost tribes.

Over the years, there has some been a lot of conjecture about the “Lost Tribes” of Israel being hidden, in “secret cities” in Russia, on another planet, in the center of the Earth, under the sea, and so forth. These theories run counter to both scriptural and historical evidence and are based in unfounded assumptions."
Of Course the Mormons think they are also the lost tribe of Ephraim (See Elder John A. Widtsoe)
