I think this must be him but he's a coal miner not a haulier, maybe that came later.
All born Pentyrch except his brother Thomas, looks like Eglwysilan, Glamorgan. Address is Level Houses, Garth, Glamorgan

John Thomas                29           Head  Coal Miner
Mary Ann Thomas         24           Wife
Adelaide Thomas           3            Dau
Hannah Maria Thomas   9 mths   Dau
Thomas Thomas            26          Brother  Coal Miner
Mary Thomas                 22          Sister-in-Law
Elizabeth Ann Thomas    5 mths   Niece

Thank you Karenbest500, but its not him  :'( He didn't have a brother called Thomas. I have got all

his brothers off the census, but not John on the 1871.

I have him on the 1881 census married to Hannah.

Thank you for looking for me.

If I'm looking at the correct John & Hannah in 1881 who has sons aged 12 & 10, this would appear to be the same family in 1871

Gwaelod y Garth, Pentyrch RG10/5355 folio 15 pg 23
John Thomas head mar 28 coal miner b. Eglwysilan
Hannah wife 22 b. Pentyrch
Thomas son 2 b. Pentyrch
John son 6 months b. Pentyrch

If it isn't the correct family, please give us the reference for 1881 and whatever other census you have him on. It's a common name and we need all the help we can get.
