I am looking for any information on my Great Uncle Thomas Watson. His parents were Janie Dunne (1895 - 1984)from Bracknagh, Offaly, Ireland and Joseph Watson believed to be from Athlone. We believe he was born in the Liverpool area between 1920 - 1927 however I have been unable to find any birth records for him or his sister my Grandmother Annie Dunne nee Watson. Thomas and Annie were taken back to Offaly, Ireland as young children and brought up by their grandparents Thomas Dunne (b 1864) Ireland & Mary Ann Bethison (Born Australia b1873).

Thomas returned to England when he was about 18 and I know he married and we beleive he had two children, the only other information I have is that at some point in his twenties he worked for the Royal Mail as we have a photo of him in the uniform of the time along with his wife.

I know he visited family in the Cloneygowan area on occation but my grandmother never mensioned seeing him during these visits. Can anyone fill in any blanks for me?
