Biography contributed by Katherine Blakeley

Jane Laura Hastie Brown was born in 1873 in New Zealand – the daughter of John Brown, a clerk and salesman, and Catherine Meek Hastie. (See 36 Catherine Brown)  

Jane worked as a teacher and when she signed the suffrage petition she was living with her family in Cargill Rd, South Dunedin. 

She married Clinton Heywood Sabine Pasley, a bank clerk, in 1905 and they lived in Invercargill. 

Clinton died in 1935 and Jane died on 20 January 1938 – they are buried together in the Invercargill Eastern Cemetery.
