Lydia was born in Campbelltown, Manawatu, named after one of its founders, Robert Campbell. The name of the town was changed in 1894 to Rongotea under the Designation of Districts Act, the reason given was that there was another Campbelltown in the South Island and this caused problems with the postal deliveries - Rongotea was the name of Turi's hapu.
