Hi

With a name like Ann Thomas and so little else you need to provide a lot more info

Quote
of hall street, llanelli,born circa 1837

Where is this information from?  Is Thomas her birth surname or her married name?

Do you have a copy of the marriage cert which will give the names of their respective fathers?

Have you looked for them on the 1871 or 1881 censuses to establish their birthplaces and John's birthyear

The surnames Thomas & Lewis are extremely common in Wales

Hi

You have only told us where they were living - were both John & Ann born in Llanelly or elsewhere?
