There was a large famous earthquake in Napier.  The napier 1931 earthquake.  Have a search of it, they teach it in schools and its all in the museums and that here.....might give you an idea of the place she lived in  :o)

Oh silly me, that's Swale, right? Isn't that Yorkshire? Did I get the right one, here?
 Forgot to say that was the J -A -S Quarter.
Checked with Jeremiah's listing, so it's the right one...J.J.

 ;D  thanks :)

I think it might be stour:

Pillerton Hersey,  It's a small village between Stratford
on Avon & Banbury.  It's got a small parish church, and that's about it.
The nearest Register Office in the 1800's was Shipston on Stour.
