I think Agnes Eliza Gaskyn is also your great grandmother.
From her (Eliza's) marriage to Bert Fletcher, her father is Walter Gaskin.

Are we trying to link to Tiptree/Kelvedon Gaskins, and who are they anyway?

You are looking at what appears to be the same family unit in 2 different census years.

Relationship looks like parent and child.

I everyone, apologies as I have only jut been able to pick this back up again. I've been reading the enclosed with great interest.

Interestingly, I was contacted through Ancestry by a Donna Price from Cheshire who has told me she is a Romany and matches my DNA. Her mother's side are from Norfolk originally. Although she knows the Gaskins as a family name, she doesn't know how we are both connected to one another. She is of the view we are connected through her mother's side of the family (Greys). Be interested to learn is the Greys are connected to the Gaskins in some way.
