there were Cholera Pits....there was only one in Lancashire,and that was in Manchester.....

Manchester
Saint Michael's churchyard - in one corner are the cholera pits where more than 40,000 people are said to be interred, mainly representing the common dead, the destitute, the workhouse inmates. Bodies were usually buried in quicklime to hasten their decay.

So that is probably where wee Thomas is buried...hope this helps you.
