not correct. It would be his great grandson. Sarah is the grandmother, Tripp is her grandson.

Yes, you are correct as to “great grandson”! I also stand by my claim (and you seem to concur) that “his” is the correct possessive.

Wait, I read it again! “His” gt-grandson; “her” grandson. Either is correct; the original statement is correct as it stands.

Never mind. (Emily Latella voice)
