A newspaper article confirms that the James Andrews above in Prison previously was a porter at Bank Top Railway station and his address was 61 Gannow Lane.

So not much chance of finding them in 1871 as they were in India, and 1891 he was already dead. It looks likely for him in prison in 1881, so the marriage posted by Gins looks promising and would be most logical lead to follow up.
