Biography

Sydney was born in Southampton Hampshire on 4 June 1910. He is the eldest son of Harold Brixton and Gertrude Morris.

Sydney never married nor had children.

Sydney followed a similar career path as his father - at the time of the 1939 Register, he was working as a railway clerk. It appears that he may have been somewhat nomadic in that position - in 1939 he lived in Bournemouth Hampshire and by 1942 he was residing in Hamworthy Junction Dorsetshire.

Sydney passed away at the London County Council Hospital in Bethnal Green London on 29 October 1942 at age 32.
