I’m confused now. Is the obituary linked not of his grandfather?
Both his paternal great grandparents are wrong
Also he is not a blood relative of Edwin Dun, he was given misinformation by his aunt who later realized the actual relationship.
He says in this instagram post that his great great great grandmother was japanese

Is his mother only Scottish? If that is the case, I would write something like:
Irish (paternal grandmother)
Scottish (mother)
I don’t know, but it seems unlikely.
