Hi Lisa,
I'd like to help if I'm able. I found some records that might fit, but it's super hard to tell without places... even someone else to link him to. Do you happen to know what courntry/state he might have been born, lived, or died in? His spouse?
Without knowing, here is one record for a Stanley Emerson who died in December of 1984 and was born 1925 in Dellaware.
If you have more information, I'm happy to continue to dig!
