Hi Anne and welcome to Rootschat!

Do you have any idea of dates for your grandmother (i.e. when she was born)?  There is a Speers family living at Clooney Terrace, Londonderry in the 1911 census, including a 7 year old Elizabeth Speers.

Slight variation on the spelling of her surname but it seems to fit.
