Default Tree with white fruit

I noticed this new tree/shrub growing in a thicket in my yard this Autumn. It's still quite small -- looks like it just got started this year.

Berries are white about 1 cm across. Leaves smooth edged, simple, irregularly or partially lobed -- reminds me of a gingko, but I can't identify this as such.

Any help out there?

Cheers!
KC

Looks like snowberry (Symphorocarpus), although I'm not sure about the bilobed leaves.

Symphoricarpos Albus it is. Thanks Chimera!

Looks like it grows in Southwestern US. Must be a recruit to make it up here.

Cheers!

I agree with snowberry, and it certainly grows in Southern Ontario., Reasonably popular as a hedge.
