Oh my goodness that is wonderful! He sounds like an interesting man, do you plan on digging further back? There's something about family history that I think is so important to preserve but I think it's not something that has survived as a tradition into the modern era.

Family Bibles, scribbled in sex ed books and spoken living histories aren't something you hear much about anymore in the Western world, so I commend you for taking your own steps to preserving your family's. My own granddad has always been full of fantastic tales and only recently we discussed recording them and editing into a book; what are your plans for your recordings?
