Trying to find Nicholson

I would like to trace my father's brother and sister, Llewelyn and Margaret, both born in the Joiners Arms in Sunnybrow, Willington, County Durham in the 1920s. My father, John Francis Nicholson, was born in 1922, died in 1980, and I never met any of his generation although I was close to the aunties and uncles on his maternal side (family name Lamb, of Willington, of whom I have lots of family history). The last time we heard of Llewelyn was in 1979 when he made a trip over from Canada where he settled with his wife Mary after WW2. I knew him at one time through correspondence but this had petered out. Margaret I never knew but I understand she continued to live in County Durham and had a son.
