Eghisabet Sultanian with her friend in Zeytun - 1895-1896

Does anyone know the name of the friend? She bears a striking resemblance to members of my family!

Actually, the warrior woman on the left with curly black hair, and a revolver in her belt, is Eghisabeth Sultanian of Zeytun, 1874-1948. She immigrated to the United States ( Worcester, Massachusetts ) in 1897 and passed away in Watertown, MA in 1948. She was 21 years old in the above photograph. You can see more photos of her here:
