He worked as a foreman in the gardens at Chatsworth, probably in the arboretum department. In 1838 when Paxton went on an extended journey abroad with the 6th Duke, and then Andrew Stewart left for Paris, he was temporarily put in charge of the gardens.

In 1839, Sarah wrote that she suspected Bailey was seeing one of the local girls, Hannah Milner, in the character of a lover. Sarah s suspicions were correct. In 1841 Thomas Bailey married Hannah Milner at Edensor, and the Paxtons were witnesses.
