	There are several things you can do to help yourself, find your grandfathers birth certificate that should give your ggrans maiden name , then find their marriage which should give their parents and ages, then chase around the censuses looking for father and son names together .
	Researching: For better results please give all the details ,name, date place as you can {pictures by me }
