What year was your dad born I have done a quick search and I found a Micheal Hannon born in Limerick but he died in England, if you would like to edit your question and include dates, I am sure someone will be able to help.

You can get copy's of both his birth and death certificates,

Death First if you find him ON the death index which can be viewed either on line or at some local library's (on microfilm)
this will give you a date of birth that will help guide you to his birth certificate, which will be in Ireland and on a different index to the English & Welsh ones but should still be obtainable.

Good luck and good hunting

Sorry, Sean, Hannon is such a common surname. In the UK alone there are hundreds from Lancashire to Exeter via Cardiff and Hove. You're looking at the proverbial needle in a haystack until you have some more concrete information including some idea of dates and places.
Someone must have some idea where he died for instance, and a rough idea of which decade. Find that and you will have an idea when he was born (unless the wrong age at death has been given), then you may have a chance of finding his place of birth and details of his adoption.
Do you know the names of either of his wives?
You can make a guess by using the dob of his first-born.
