The Actors Edmund(Gwenn) and Arthur(Chesney) have been described as “cousins” of the Actor Cecil Kellaway.

However, there is no evidence to support this idea. Cecil was on the “George of Newington Line” and his family descent can be seen here. and here.

There are no known male descendents of the these two actors, but the Halwill line matches the “Black Torrington” line for DNA whilst George (and therefore Cecil) matches the American “Peter” line. So “cousins” is really not possible.
