That mating board has SMT connector - so I don't see where you make sense here and John that sample mating board has not through hole connectors so I don't see how you would connect it. I have looked at several boards like this and they base board brings out connection to headers parallel to the board that allows small modules to plug into it. They generally don't have pins perpendicular to the base board so it is not friendly to mounting to another bigger board. You can get the connectors like on the base board to mount on the S100 board but they are SMT connectors not thru hole because the pin spacing is much smaller than thru hole. Look carefully at the specifications of the module and the base board.
