I think this may be Mrs Sarah Jane Orange, widow, of St John Street, Woolston, Christchurch. She is listed in the Wises New Zealand Post Office Directory, 1892-93. Wises is digitised on Ancestry.com. She is buried in Woolston Cemetery, d.22 July 1920.

Sarah Ann(e) Orange of Riccarton, nee Smith, was my great-great-grandmother. NZ Electoral for Taieri, 1896.
