1881 census was taken April 1881, he could have possibly changed jobs by 1882? As for being a postman in January 1881 that would concern me I had the correct man, as this one in 1881 states he is a watch motion maker

I think the death you found is possibly of the William Elliott found in 1851/1881, he is not with family in 1861/1871 the info from this connects to a brother John.

I have not looked for another as was just searching for William with a brother John.

Added: Have you considered DNA testing? The info on marriage certs is only as good as informant knowledge and truthfulness in what is told to informant.

Good luck with it and best wishes, hope you solve it
