Results from two tables

I have an Android application with SQLite database, where I display search results for user input. I have 2 tables, both have the same columns, but one is used for user's custom data. When user searches for something, I would like to display UNIQUE results from both tables together. How would I do that? Is it possible to use JOIN? Or should I query each table separately and then join the Cursors?

Tables:

_id  a    b  c
---------------
1  data data 3
2  data data 10
3 data data 1

and

_id  a    b  c
---------------
1  data data 10
2  data data 6
3 data data 1

Make a Union into the two tables

SELECT a,b,c
FROM table1
[WHERE condition]

UNION

SELECT a,b,c
FROM table2
[WHERE condition]
