Where is Thomas supposed to fit in?

This is the only Thomas Cavanagh that I have found born in Easington in the 1860s

1871 Easington
Michael Cavanah 58 mason's labourer
Mary Ann Cavanah 40
John Cavanah 14
Margaret Cavanah 12
Thomas Cavanah 10   
Ellen Cavanah 4
Michael Cavanah 1

parents Ireland, all children Easington
slightly surprising that John, 12, has no occupation

There are several published trees for the family - I have only looked at one.
Thomas has been included as a sibling and this 1871 census has been referenced:

1871 4953/20/5
Wolsingham Road, Wolsingham - a Common Lodging House run by James Brannon.
John Cavanagh 38 yrs Labourer b Ireland
Catharine 38 yrs b Ireland
Thomas 7 yrs b North Wales, Wrexham
John 1 yr b Durham, Ferry Hill

In 1881 4925 /36/65

The family are living at Helmington Row and Thomas is shown b Spennymoor.

Sorry for the late reply. Kavanagh is spelt with both a K and a C.
I did follow the Helmington Row family, John ended up in Gateshead but totally lost Thomas.
Thomas married a Margaret McCoy in 1894 in Lanchester Co Durham, he was born 1867 according to his marriage cert. No idea where he was born or died yet still working on that. He had 3 children Mary Ellen born 1894, Catherine Bridget born 1896 and John Thomas born 1898 only Catherine survived.
Thomas' father was John a labourer. When married they lived at a place called Flint Hill Dipton n Co Durham. When the baby died in 1900 I never found any trace of him after that. I have saved census records etc but cannot prove anything.  Very many thanks to everyone who posted to help. I don't know how to post an individual reply.

Where were the family living when John Thomas died - the address.
I can see his birth in 1898 but not a death.

Was Catherine Bridget in an institution in 1911?

[eksteel]

Keeping Place Felling Gateshead is the address and he died in Gateshead in 1900.

Catherine Bridget was still with her mother in 1911 and never institutionalized.
Thanks for asking and thanks for your help.

Leeming place, not keeping place, spellcheck changed it sorry.

[heywood]

I can’t see Catherine in 1911 with her mother.
There are published trees which has Catherine as Caveney in an institution. That’s the the one I meant.
Where are they living?
I can’t see a death for John Thomas either -do you have the reference please?

[eksteel]

Catherine was living with her mother and new husband Patrick  McIntyre, they married in 1902 in Newcastle upon Tyne.
I don’t have an address for them.
John Thomas died in Newcastle upon Tyne in 1900 and is buried in Gateshead.
Sorry I don’t have refs.
