Thomas & Rachel Davies appear in the list of members in Baran Chapel for 1841
http://www.a-glamorgan-family.com/BaranChapelMembers.html

The Swansea archives have some records

http://www.swansea.gov.uk/index.cfm?articleid=27191

there don't appear to be registers, but it might be worth asking to see if John is on a later list.

Have you looked for a will for George Davies?

These are my Thomas and Rachel Davies - in 1841 they were living in Rhyndwyclydach.  They were buried in the graveyard at Baran Chapel next to the grave of John and his wife Mary.

I've looked for a will for George Davies and there is one that might be a possibility (with wife Margaret) but it does not provide anything useful in terms of trying to identify which Rachel Thomas married.

so what about the membership lists and the history of Baran Chapel at the archives in Swansea? As they were members for so long, they may get a mention.
