Hezekiah is also my 3x great grandfather, his daughter Rebecca & Joshua had a daugher Edith, who married Percy Dodds. They then had a bunch of kids, one of which was Aubrey Dodds. Aubrey married Thelma and had a daughter Margaret, who's my mum.
Anyway thought I'd reach out in case you're still looking for any more info!
Cheers,
Dave.
