May I clarify the Probate info....................

There is no way of knowing to whom the man bequeathed his effects without seeing the Will

His widow would have been granted either Probate or Letters of Administration....that's why she is named on the record found on Ancestry

Hi Gerald

This looks like Elsie's birth index

Births Jun 1894

Valentine Elsie Sheffield 9c 615

Which means she was born BEFORE June 30th
=======================================

So I think the informant has her year of birth out by 1 year --- on her death index
