Looking at the address, I would say this is the missing Lizzie!

Probate index entry
Elizabeth Mary Saxton otherwise Elizabeth of 77 Church Drive Daybrook Nottinghamshire died 1 MArch 1966 at The Old HAll Balderton Newark Nottinghamshire Probate to Harold McCaig Milne Bank Official   £537

Yes - age is right.
Death
March 1966
Newark
Ref 3c 301
Elizabeth M Saxton
age 86

Seems she never married either
Edmonds/Edmunds - mainly Sussex
DeBoo - London
Green - Suffolk
Parker - Sussex
Kemp - Essex
Farrington - Essex
Boniface - West Sussex

George left a Will, might be worth getting in case it names married daughters, but of ocurse he may have left everything to his wife.
MAry Maria did not leave a Will, spinster daughter administered the estate

But Alice Ellen DID leave a Will. Hers may well be worth getting. Not being married she may well have named brothers, sisters, nephews and Nieces as beneficiaries. 

Probate index entry:
Alice Ellen Saxton of 77 Church Drive Daybrook Arnold Nottingham spinster died  29 Nov 1940 Probate to Midland Bank Executor and Probate Trustee Company Efffects £1555 11s 11d

Hi Liz,     I hunted around on Google and found the Gov.UK web site  with the Probate Indexes and have ordered Alice Ellen's,  as being quite late, as you said it could provide more information than her fathers.  Will let you know when it comes through.
Thank you very much for your work, sounds as if you like a challenge too.

Liz, I am amazed at how quickly you find things,  just a few days ago I was completely at a dead end with "Lizzie", stuck at 1891 census for many years, and now you have found her at the end of her life.
I had come back to her many times as it bugged me that she was "lost".  These sisters must be among the folk who wouldn't open their doors to the census takers !! And there must have been many of them who have left their descendants endlessly searching them out.

I will order her will as well, and will let you all know the results. They have said 10-14 days for Alice Ellen's. The older they are, the longer they take apparently, so don,t think I have forgotten you.

THANK YOU ALL.

Could this be her in 1911? It's in the right area

 :) :) :)

Great team work!

mavowl-
Such a nice family to research.

Your group was/is pretty easy to find in 1881 on A*try.
Wildcards*** just using Fran* born 1879 (plus or minus 2) with father as Geo* and mother Mar* and keyword as Arnold. The HEATON bunch just had to be correct. (I can't blame the transcriber for that effort!). :)

Thankyou Mabel,  I had noted that marriage just before turning off for the night. What a lovely surprise to see this morning that you had followed it through and confirmed it was "our" Caroline.
77 Church Drive, Daybrook, was very definitely the family home!!
