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 Surname Forename(s) Age Sub-District Registers At Reference PROCTER Thomas 0 Burnley Preston BU/9/71

Burial: 14 Mar 1845 St Peter, Burnley, Lancashire, England Thomas Proctor - Age: Infant Abode: Burnley Lane Head Buried by: Jas. Bardsley Register: Burials 1839 - 1845, Page 293, Entry 2341 Source: LDS Film 1526392
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.
