Have double-checked GRO death indexes for 1890 (plus quarter before and after), but no sign of this individual.

Where did you get "1890" and "Vol 8c"? What was the registration district?

Now Iam double checking, and I have him still alive in the 1891 census, so now I don't know, its Wigan he came from, sorry

If he came from Wigan, then the death Jill found in 1892 sounds like it might be him.
