Yesterday I found an online painting from 1857, in England, which I think closely resembles the one of my 4xGreat Grandmother. All of the Wybrant paintings share similar features, including being in profile, and having a white background. I was able to get a good look at the signatures and they look very close.
Wybrants 1855. Wybrants Artist 1857. These signatures are painted in the same style. They are both located on two different sides of the Atlantic, one in Montana (by way of Iowa and New York and maybe Massachussetts), the other in England. These signatures are the strongest evidence I have seen that the paintings in each country were painted by the same person.
