Trying to find Grace

I believe my Great-great-grandmother is cousin of W.G. Grace (Cricketer) - her name is Edith Ellen Grace born around 1875. So far I have been unable to connect any family other than her husband William Critchley and her son Frank William Critchley, though stories suggest she had a sister 'Joan?' who may have married 'Harry Joad?'. Edith Ellen lived with her son in Broadstairs in 1901 in a boarding house (she later owned at least one boarding house, maybe two, in Broadstairs/Margate area) - it is thought her husband went to Australia without his family.
