In 1915, she moved south along the Snow Mountain (Hsuehshan) range, passing through several villages in Chienshih Rural Township, Wufeng Rural Township, and around Mt. Tapachien. She then settled down in Miaoli. Today there are quite a lot of old people in Tai-an Rural Township with facial tattoos made by her.
她原居於新竹尖石鄉的泰崗部落，從日據大正四年（一九一五年），沿著雪山山脈往南移，經過今日尖石、五峰鄉及大霸尖山附近的幾個部落，來到苗栗定居，如今泰安鄉不少「黥面國寶」的文面，都在這位雅佑女士手中完成。
