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.
