Keep in mind that, if he is still living, his name should not be mentioned here.  Do you have any further information on him?  A birth date?  There are several people of that name on the 1940 census and on the SSDI but none in Massachusetts.

Sorry for posting his name, I did'nt think of that, full apologies.

Unfortunately i have very little to go on, other than his name and the other pieces of info i mentioned in my first note, it's a bit of a complicated situation, which is why i don't have much to go on. How would i get to see the census you mentioned ? maybe that would highlight something for me, all this is new to me, your help would be much appreciated.

Thank you so much for the reply.

Regards.

Glen.

Follow those links in the previous post to the 1940 census and SSDI results for that name.  There are many other US records at FamilySearch, which is free and the best place to start looking for someone in the United States.
