WOW -- you have quite a nice heirloom there! If it was used by your grandmother, it's already "seasoned." You have to season cast iron when it's new because, if you don't, it will rust -- iron -- rust -- you get the picture. But with a nice "patina" of oil baked into the pot over a period of years, it won't "rust" -- you just wash it quickly and but it back on the fire to dry COMPLETELY before putting away. A thin coat of mineral oil wouldn't hurt. If you use vegetable oil, as most people do, the oil gets rancid if not used right away.

You'll love your heirloom; I know I love mine! It's ALWAYS in use!
