Hello, Thank you both,
I didn't look for a birth because I wanted info on the adult Lizzie, and no I've not got another thread as far as I know. But thank you anyway.

Hello again.

Not sure if I can ask again for help, but here goes.

In 1915 my grandfather was born to an unmarried mother in a house in Liverpool
The house was owned by a Lizzie Orton Brown, a Nurse. I discovered this with help from a lady on this site way back in 2005 by the name of Patricia.
I've never been able to find anything else about Lizzie since then, who was she, did she own the house my grandad was born in, was it a mother and baby home? Did she deliver my grandad? Of course, these questions will never be answered. But I would love to discover something about the woman who owned the house my grandad was born in.
I've looked for her in the 1911/1921 and 1939 census and also the summery books
but I've had no luck. Any suggestions would be gratefully received. The address of the house is 17 Beaconsfield street, Toxteth park, Liverpool. Thank you.
