It could be mid-1900s, definitely - as I say, it's very hard to tell from the image you've posted exactly when it was taken.  I would not have said it's the same lady, even so - 10 years doesn't age one that much (at least I hope it doesn't!)

Yeah you would hope you don't age that much in such a short space of time, out of interest how old would you say the two people in the second picture are, and do you think it would have been taken in the early/mid 1890's?

Yes, I think the date is right, you can trust Chinakay (and Jim) to give you the right dates  ;)

The people in that picture I would have said were in their 50s...I'm not great at telling ages though.

Is it possible that the younger woman is the daughter of the older?  There are definite similarities.
