What is the last census you have him on?

Who was he married to?

Have you looked for his death on freebmd?    www.freebmd.org.uk

Father's surname-Smith,gran was Corden-Manchester/Nottingham. Mother's maiden name-Parry,family from Pentraeth,Anglesey. Great Great granparents were Charles and Mary Conlon-Ireland.Great grandfather  was William E. Conway-Old Colwyn.

rosie99 suggested you buy the death certificate.
It would give his address and who referred the death.
At the GRO (General Register Office) you have to register, but they tend to be cheaper and quicker than the paid databases who also offer the service.
With an address, he is likely to be buried fairly locally.

Added: If Catholic there is a cemetery in Conway Road, Llanrhos, Llandudno.
If you contact the council, they may be able to trace him.

* In the first question you say he was born 1806 in Ireland then in your latest post it is 1866 in Belfast, Ireland. *

1881 Census: Eirias, Caernarfonshire
Parents: Charles Conlon . 1801 . Ireland . Mary Conlon (mmn Hughes) . 1839 . Llangwstenin, Caernarvonshire
Children: William Conlon, Ellen Conlon, Mary Conlon, Elizabeth Conlon, Catherine Conlon, Martha Conlon.
RG11 . Piece/Folio 5582/96 . Page 18
I checked the GRO and Martha was Conlen mmn Hughes.

There is a 1871 Census record for a Charles Conlon, Fish Dealer and wife Mary, but from her birth it is the same couple.
1871 Census: Llandrillo, Merionethshire
Parents: Charles Conlon . 1806 . Mary Conlon . 1841
He was born in West Springfield, Hampshire, Massachusetts, United States
Children: John Conlon, William Conlon
William Conlen . 1867 . Conway . mmn Hughes.
 
Added: Either these are wrong, or Donay is wrong.
Or with the age difference this could be a second marriage.
Eirias, Caernarfonshire is Colwyn Bay, but would be registered in Conway.
It matches what you have.
