Have you checked out all possible marriages on https://www.freebmd.org.uk/search?
On the results screen, click the page numbers to see who is also listed on the same registration page.

If you know the name of a child born in the UK, as long as its not too common, sign into
https://www.gro.gov.uk/gro/content/certificates/ and search for their registration. That should give you the mothers maiden name which will help to filter the marriage registration results.

Failing that, you may have to spend £9.25 for each possible marriage cert. When you order from GRO, you might be able to use father Thomas as checking feature but still end up with a number of possible results

Looking at the GRO index the mmn seems to be John

Have found several of the children reg including Isaac and Maria and John
None have a second name whIch may narrow down the resuits for a marriage

The reg district to seems to be Cardiff but there are several registered from 1871 to 1881

So the name of one of their chiidren seems to be the way to go to find mmn
