As I research inventors and scientsts from a hundred years ago, more or less, I think about my great-grandfather sometimes. I own his copy of a book he wrote on cement chemistry; my grandfather gave it to me along with a few other possessions of his.
My great-grandfather's name was Hubert Woods. Here's one of his papers:

I wonder how many buildings and other structure my great-grandpa has had some influence on.
