Based in St James' Street St Peter Port - Carel Toms mentions the date of 1891 in his book 'Guernsey Pictures from the Past' as the earliest date found in local almanacs and newspapers for this photographer. I believe the photograph of the older woman was taken much earlier than this.He also does not mention st James' Street, but the Grange. Further research is required.

These cards do not have any markings on their backs.
