My great grandmother was Matilda Spongberg. I am trying to verify that she is # 50 in the photo of the class of 1889 and if there are any other photos of her.

Matilda Spongberg 1869 - 1925.

I would appreciate any help I can get to verify that this is or is not my great grandmother. Thank you Jerry Woodhouse.
