Were Etta Squier Seley and Emma Lindsay Squier sisters?

Classification: Query
Surnames: Squier, Squiers, Seley
According to the 1880 US census, Emma's father (Russell Lafayette Squier) had a daughter named Etta C. Squiers by an unnamed first wife in 1872 (Emma was born to Ada Lindsay, the 2nd wife, in 1892). Both Etta Squier Seley and Emma Lindsay Squier were writers and shared the "Squier" name but I have not been able to find a verifiable family relationship between the two. While I can speculate that Etta C. and Etta Squier Seley are the same person, I cannot find any document naming Etta C. beyond that 1880 census record. Can any of you either verify that these names belonged to the same person or show that they were not? Any help is much appreciated.
