Daguerreotypes are laterally reversed images. But look at the caps worn in a couple of the portraits that show lettering not laterally reversed. Not daguerreotypes.

Photography:first utterance. Sir John Herschel, 14 March 1839 at the Royal Society. "...Photography or the application of the Chemical rays of light to the purpose of pictorial representation,..".
Compelling portraits regardless. I too am skeptical that what is being shown is D-type. But I admit I don't keep pace with any potential modern tweaks on that process. Mercury is not my cup of tea.
Beautiful Portraits !
