You need to look at freebmd and establish exactly when he was born before looking for a death

With such a common name, you need as much detail as you can find

What was his mother's maiden name? Or even her first name would help

CH if you get the birth cert for exact DOB you 'might' be able to tie it in with this death, out of area, but not too far a stretch perhaps if he stayed in Wales.
