Without dates and birthplaces, helping you will be difficult

Have you tried looking in search trees? That should be the first place to try if you're looking for living contacts

There is only one Josiah Thomason showing on genes, and he does not appear to be yours.
It is unlikely that Thomason descendants will see your posting, and if Josiah is not in your tree they will not be able to contact you that way.

Some Josiah Thomasons come from Scotland, are these yours?
