Add them in an override of the CreateChildControls method of the Page. Be sure to give them an ID! This way they get added to the control tree at the correct time.

IMHO The best way would be to use DataBound Templated Control though, i.e. something like a ListView (in .NET 3.5). then in pageload after postback traverse all items in the databound control and use item.FindControl to get at the actual checkbox.
