The only person who seems to fit is Alfred Sykes, born in Whitwick in 1886, who married Jessie Freeman in 1905.
He died on 29th December 1961 and probate of his will was to Ernest James Fox and James Lawrence Gee.
He would appear to be the son of Joseph Sykes, born c1851 in Thringstone or Whitwick, and Zillah or Zellah, born c1857 in Whitwick.
The marriage looks like Jul-Sep 1876 in the Ashby area to Priscilla Jays, presumably shortened to Zillah.
Next door in 1881 and 1891 is a Gee family, which might be related to the person in his will.

A tree on Ancestry has William's father as John Jayes b 1797 and Hannah Howe b 1803

I have Alfred Sykes born c1887 on my family tree, he is my 5th cousin 3 times removed so is a very distant relation. I do not have his baptism but his parents were John Sykes (bap 4 Mar 1849) in Whitwick and Annie (born Codnor, Derbyshire), Alfred's siblings were Frederick, Ann, John and William, they were born in Codnor while Alfred was born in Thringstone. Alfred also had 2 half siblings as his father married again.
John Sykes born 1849 was the s/o John Gains Sykes (1810 Loughborough) and Mary Bradley and this John was the s/o Nicholas Sikes and Sarah Gains of Loughborough. Nicholas married 2 Sarah's in Loughborough, he and his 3rd wife Mary then moved to Thringstone. Nicholas was a butcher.
Hope this helps,
