Edward had son Frank WILKINSON (1897-1971), who had a daughter Beryl (1933-2012) who married . The family are in the Worthing area of SSX. This new match would be my 4th cousin, and the shared segment coming either through Jeremiah or his wife Mary Ann .

The importance of this type of match, back to Jeremiah and his wife, cannot be under-estimated, based on the need for clues for earlier missing ancestry. Such matches will need to be shared to GEDmatch so we can crossmatch all 26 people in the GRACE family, as one of us may show a DNA segment that relates to others outside of our tree.
