EDIT: And in 1851 it looks like Evan and Ann are in Hitchin- Piece: 1710; Folio: 144; Page: 22

Sydney Ann Jones, daughter of Evan, a railway porter, and Ann of Starlings Bridge, was baptised on 1st August 1852 in Hitchin.

Same occupation as the 1851 census, although his birth place given as Llanarmon.
