It could turn into a biography, yes.

I understand that the guns would be of foremost interest to people.

It's not that I'm not keen on the guns side, but understandably, he's a "relative" and had quite a life ... plus there are interesting elements of Victorian Edinburgh and Scotttish life to be explored, so that's likely to be the focus.

I've got Wal Winfer's book, and Temple and Skennertonicon, plus have seen large extracts of Kirton.

Who knows where it will go ?!!
