It's not much but it's all I could find:

"Two wealthy sisters who live together in a large house in St. Petersburg and who adopt Huck. The gaunt and severe Miss Watson is the most prominent representative of the hypocritical religious and ethical values Twain criticizes in the novel. The Widow Douglas is somewhat gentler in her beliefs and has more patience with the mischievous Huck. When Huck acts in a manner contrary to societal expectations, it is the Widow Douglas whom he fears disappointing."

I don't think there was much discription of her other than that in Huckleberry Finn. Mark Twain was more interested in the story. She was probably the typical old spinster lady of Victorian times.
