I can't see a corresponding birth for your grandfather though. Are you certain this birth book is his?
I strongly advise you to get his marriage cert.

Linda, you need to find his marriage cert so you can establish his father's name. It should then be possible to look for his parents' marriage.
Have you names of any of his siblings?
