Christine Palmieri's article in Physics Today (November 7, 2023) includes  "archival images (that) highlight the work of female astronomers at the Wisconsin Yerkes Observatory in the early 20th century."

There is also a link to another article by Palmieri about these astronomers and their contributions. I hope you will read both essays.
