What proof do you have that he was b Worcs?  He died there but no birth in Worcs on freebmd for that name.  One in Merthyr Tydfil  June qtr 1900.  If you are taking his birthyear from the 1964 death - full birthdates were not recorded until 1969

Who were his parents?

Who did he marry & when?

Have you looked for him on the 1939 register?

That doesn't prove he was born there.  Have you looked on freebmd for a birth?

See freebmd births 1949-1958 - 3 x Condon/Owen births.  Those children are presumably still alive

I think the chap born Merthyr may not be yours (b in Aberdare, still there in 1939)

Thomas Condon
Death Age:    90
Birth Date:    22 Feb 1900
Registration Date:    Apr 1990
Registration District:    Merthyr Tydfil

Have you considered he may be irish ? There's a few Thomas Condons  the right age on their censuses

Asking his children may be your best bet or buying a copy of the 1956 marriage cert to get his fathers name.  I agree with Mabel - looking at the children's names I would say he was b Ireland
