Trying to find Anderson

Am searching for any information re my paternal Grandmother Lily Ellen Anderson. She was admitted to the Diamantina Orphanage in Brisbane, Australia on 30 April 1887. Her date of birth on the Register was 'about November 1884'. Her father's name is shown as Bolger Anderson. Unfortunately, the Brisbane Flood on 1974 destroyed all other records. It is believed that Lily was born at sea and her mother died in childbirth. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Linda Cox (nee Bell)
