There is a Thomas birth on Lancashirebmd in 1845, so wonder if he died in infancy - so not the Thomas owning the property?

PROCTER Thomas Burnley Preston ISHERWOOD BU/13/35

There is this death which could be him - Lancsbmd gives ages on some of the areas transcribed:

Lancashire Death indexes for the years: 1845

Right area, so think this may be the death of their child Thomas.

Yes I agree, it could another one - but Thomas (mmn Isherwood) never showed up on any of the census returns with the rest of the family, so it stongly points to him dying in infancy.

Susan doens't have anything to point to Thomas being a sibling, the farmer/landowener could or could not have been a relative/ancestor.
