If you would like to trace the family further, you could find Mary's maiden name on a birth certificate for one of the children. Perhaps the birth of Enoch Thomas in 1883 (June Q)
Neath volume 11a page 609  but specify village, parents names and father's occupation to ensure it's the correct one.

There is a marriage of Morgan Thomas and Mary Williams at Neath district in 1874 (March Q) which would fit with the birth of son Morgan
Neath volume 11a page 857
