Ah, never mind, I've found their marriage on FamilySearch Record Search now with his surname given as Gormer (same as on some of the censuses), 11 Dec 1835 Cowlinge. Then there is a son Thomas baptised on the same day.

There is an Elizabeth Simons baptism 25 Jun 1809 at Cowling(e), parents John and Ann, date of birth 15 Mar 1809. So what you've found looks likely, but it might be worth getting a lookup of John Gormer and Elizabeth Symons' marriage to see names of witnesses etc. and that might help confirm it's the right family.
