If he died in Llanelli ( there is a Queen Victoria Rd), then he could be buried at St. Paul's churchyard or more likely Box Cemetery. You could contact them

His death will be registered in the Registration District covering where he died.

As for burial, the family may have arranged to take the body back "home" for burial, or may have had it buried near where he died. The death cert will have no bearing on the burial.

Thank you Lizdb will search for the Registry Office for deaths in Llanelly Wales. I agree Joseph Arthur Evans was more then likely taken back to his home for burial.
