How to access ref of Second child from first child within same Parent in ReactJS

I have Parent component containing two child component. 

<Parent>
<Child1></Child1>
<Child2></Child2>
</Parent>

In Child2 component I have one Ul (unorder list), in which I have given ref="mylist". 

<ul ref="mylist" className="list"><li>Test1</li><li>Test2</li><li>Test3</li></ul>

So how can I access mylist from Child1 component and get list values.

use React.createRef() inside parent and pass that as prop to children.

You may consider to store values inside Parent component and pass them as props to children.
