Your bicycles may be 1897 lower priced $50.00 Crescents based on information from catalog pages below. The top of the line models were $75.00 each:

Your men's model looks like this one with same fork crown and front sprocket:

If your women's has 28" wheels it could be this one as fork crown matches but front sprocket does not:

These specifications should help identify each bicycle if they are 1897 Crescents:
