Vachel Goddard 1856-1944 & Mary S. Berga 1860-1885

Vachel Goddard was first married to Mary S. Berga (1860 - 1885) and then to her sister, Ellen Catherine Berga (1871 - 1934).This picture was sent to me identified as Mary Berga ..The style of clothing has me wondering if it is later than the 1885 death date for Mary , so this picture has made me question if it is Mary or Ellen. Maybe someone else can answer that question. -Larry
