Is he dead or still alive? What's his name? If he's dead, where did he die, do you have a copy of his obituary, death certificate? That will tell you quite a bit probably. Where is he buried? Who else is buried there with him? He was probably married at some point.....do you know his wife's (your grandmother?) name? How many children did he have, do you know their names? These would be your mother/father's aunts & uncles, cousins? What did he do for work? Where was that? Where was your mother/father born? Do you have a copy of their birth certificate? You need to look at all of these things to help you figure out who your grandpa was/is?
