Are these girls retired "ninja women of Potter" and am I related to any?

Dorthea Trayer We are 4th cousins 1x removed, so... I think you already know that Phoebe Dingman Fessenden is your 3rd great aunt; you might not have recognized her in her ninja!

Patricia Neilly Vella the one listed as Phoebe Fessenden doesn't look like the pictures I've seen. What do you think?

Her face looks too round, but I guess it could be the camera angle or the way she's sitting ! Some of these women are younger than I am - I'm sure glad we don't look that old now days LOL !!

The one in back looks more like her . Maybe by 1st row they meant the back row.

Phoebe, Prudence and Kate are all in my family tree, maybe others too. Seems that half the folks around Roulette were related to the other half!

When it says first row, could it mean top row?
