Best mate's closest is third - fourth cousin: Shared DNA: 191 cM across 13 segments.
Slightly further down the pecking order, a third cousin (tho' possibly removed) ranks lower than a fourth cousin.
I suspect that the balance of probability is that you share a great grandfather. Do you have matches with anyone men of his surname? Or is it Smith?
