Thank you everyone for your input. This is what I do know - my 2 gt grandfather Thomas Thomas born in Wales about 1839 married Mary Matthews in 1868 in Swansea. Mary had a daughter Mary Anne (Morris) from a previous relationship. Then they had my maternal grandfather Evan - a son David and a daughter Sarah and they all came to Australia under the name Thomas on the "Star of India" in 1876. See attached record. They had another son in Australia - Thomas John who was known as John. Thomas Thomas may have been married to a Jane Owen C1861 before Mary.
1871 Census they were living at Banwell St, Llangafelach, Morriston, Swansea.
The supposed rest is that his father was David Thomas and mother Sarah Evans. 1851 census has them living at Bryntwad Street, Llangafelach, Swansea.
Many thanks Chrissie46
