Hello Dave I was not aware of them having another daughter called Martha.  I have look on freereg.org.uk and I have found a Thomas born to the couple baptised 10 May 1829 but cannot find a death or marriage.  It is interesting that you mention Dead Mills as there was a legal dispute over this and other properties which hit the papers.  I am not sure  who inherited but going further back Thomas' father owned it, there was also 2 older brothers John Griffin and Paul but not sure on their entitlement.
Many Thanks for the information certainly an interesting family
