Mary was born in Narbeth Pembrokeshire about 1784 she is on the 1841 and 1851 censuses
They had at least two sons
Thomas b about 1820 Narbeth
William b about 1829 Narbeth
And possibly George who is 20 on the 1841 census with Marybut of course no relationship is shown. nothing else is known about George

From 1851 census HO107/2462 fo322 p39
