my 4x great grandmother Catherine Pearce (sometimes Katherine, sometimes Caroline) is living in Hammersmith in 1851. She gives her place of birth as Stately, Berkshire - but I've no idea where this refers to. She's clearly not particularly literate so does it sound like anything else? Or could it be a general reference (maybe she was brought up on an estate?)? Many thanks for any help

Could it have been Streatley?
It is about 8 miles (13 km) from Reading and about 16 miles (26 km) from Oxford.

brilliant!
this is great - thank you! It makes perfect sense as her husband was a fisherman, so the move to Hammersmith is clearly one along the river. Hopefully, I'll get somewhere with this!
