That is definitely her!
I am intrigued by the Springdale connection. It is where Wm B was buried -yet he practised as a solicitor and actually died in NY.  So someone was there that was important to them - maybe one of those potential siblings ....

Springdale is a section of Stamford, Connecticut and not that far from New York City, so perhaps William lived there for a while and had already purchased a plot in Emmanuel Cemetery. Not sure when he would have been born but could he have retired to Stamford?
