  The second link above suggests Sticky Backs were at 30 Grafton Street from 1906, therefore an earliest date for the photo. The (ghastly) hats look more 1906 than 1916.
  
  Edit - Later on the article suggests "Mr Henry L Lloyd (1910-1919)"
  So earliest 1910 ??

  The DIB says (my emphasis):
  Casement, Sir Roger David (1864–1916), humanitarian and Irish nationalist, was born 1 September 1864 in Sandycove, near Dublin, youngest child among one daughter and three sons of Roger Casement, retired army officer, and Anne Casement (née Jephson).

  In the archive, I see Letters from Roger Casement to his sister Agnes Newman and his cousin Gertrude Bannister, and also essays by Roger Casement Senior, and three letters by him including one on the Siege of Paris, 1850-1916.

  From more nli letters, his brothers are Tom and Charlie.
