Neither appear on 1851 Census.
So born c 1776/1780

  Thanks Bunnygirl.
I've come across Thomas Kirkland of Barlestone when searching for a birth date and that is the only one I can find. I couldn't find him in Enderby so this must be him...Also Enderby has births/marriage/deaths online and I could only find Thomas and Susanna plus their children on there which made me think Thomas was born somewhere else. I know Bradshaw is an Enderby name as I have other Bradshaws in my tree.

Hi
I've looked on Barleston PR and there is a Thomas Kirkland he was baptized in 1795 parents Ambrose Keckland & Elizabeth Pare

That can't be my Thomas as he married Susanna in 1798....I think some relation though.
I've found lots on Susanna's family since you gave me her surname.

I'll do a search on Ambrose, he could be my Thomas's uncle.
