We present experimental results of thermoelectric power S and magnetic specific heat C-m down to 0.2 K for Ce(Ni1-xPdx)(2)Ge-2 (x = 0 similar to 0.12) and CeCu5.9Au0.1, being located in the vicinity of antiferro-magnetic quantum critical point (AFM-QCP). S/T for Ce(Ni1-xPdx)(2)Ge-2 shows complicated temperature dependence in contrast to a monotonic increase in the C-m/T with decreasing temperatures. The correlation parameter q, equivalent to the ratio S/C-m, decreases below 10 K attaining a considerably smaller value than unity at the lowest temperature for CeNi2Ge2. On the other hand, the q for CeCu5.9Au0.1 deviates upward below 0.6 K from the saturation around 1 K, and reaches unity at the lowest temperature. The contrastive observation in the q between the both systems at low temperatures seems to reflect the difference in the AFM-QCP type.
