Is the name Thomas Heaton Smith?

I thought it was Thomas Smith from Heaton? Although I think Heaton is in Lancashire!

There is a Heaton in Bradford. I just thought that John Smith may have been given his birthplace as a middle name. It would help if Carol came back and said what other information she has about him.

Thank you for your reply's Thomas was born Heaton Bradford 1825 it is a couple miles away from Wilsden, I have him on the 1841 census living with the Jowett family in Thornton aged 15, he lived there for the rest of his life he married Tabitha Dixonj, he was my great Great Grandfather but I can't find any parents, one theory I have is that he was the son of Susannah Jowett the mother of the family he was living with in 1841
