Grandmother and her Brother

"This photo was taken in 1930.  I believe that it is a  photograph of Jessie McGrouther (above) and her brother James.  Would you be able to tell me if the Lady in this photo is the same person.as the lady in the photo above?.

It seems to me quite plausible that it is the same lady in both of your two photos above.
