I don't know if Ireland still recognizes a grandchild's right to Irish
citizenship if one or more grandparents were born in Ireland.
You need documentation proof of their birth and it used to cost around
$155. and might take one year to get the papers.

If there is an Irish Consulate there, that would be the place to inquire
about it.

There are many messages here on the subject.
