Anon, those family tree crumbs in your grandpa's family bible are acceptable as legal proof of birth/death/marriage. If you become interested in tracing your lineage in the future, you can enter those names and dates into a genealogy site, and those crumbs will grow into a tree right before your eyes :)
If a time comes when you either don't want it anymore, or can't take care of it, please give it to your state archives or to the National Society of the Daughters of the American Revolution. Either will index and archive your grandpa's bible safely and respectfully into perpetuity.
