Thanks to everyone for their help. I think I was able to find his birth record and luckily, it includes the names of his grandparents. I'm still going to go through the rest of the records (this was on page 3 of the book!), but I think this is his birth record. I'm just going to go through the rest to rule any other possibilities out. The mother's name doesn't include Medeiros like on his marriage record, but it wouldn't be the first time I saw a record missing a part of a person's name. I suppose it's also possible she married after his birth to someone with the last name of Medeiros.
