They arrived 5 February 1891, travelled in forward steerage, but destination only says United States.

We know who you are trying to find but sometimes we have to explore other family avenues and the fact he had a sister living in the USA, may have been significant.  Its ok, we've have managed to find out that info.
Owen Thomas is quite a common name, there were a lot of them so it makes the task more difficult.
Knowing his parents were Owen Thomas and Ann Griffiths may help, not sure yet. It depends who gives information relating to his death.
