My uncle Peter wants to track down his biological dad, the only clue his now deceased mother gave him was that the man she was briefly involved with was called Patrick Conlyn (spelling could be wrong) who was in employment in Stockton around 1953 & 1954?

This seems like a complete long shot....

No Patrick Conlyn. Could be Conlan or Conlon or Conlin, of which there are quite a few births in the general area.

There's one Conley born Stockton 1928, but no way of knowing ( there are Connelly/Connolly also.

( edit to add sadly that Conley seems to have died 2003)

That Patrick did have siblings, you might be able to follow through and see if they had children who would be willing to take a DNA test, but that really is a very long shot.

if you want top look further at that one I can PM the 1939 reg if you don't have a sub.

Apologies for the delay Nyx, my uncle Peter has not provided many details. This may well be a wild goose chase. I suspect his best bet is a DNA test,
