"Hill End" estate staff and gardener photos

Hi All,
Does anybody recognize any of these characters working at "Hill End" Farm estate, Broadbottom, Mottram? Found them on a terrific site about Broadbottom history (Permission has been given to post photos!) here is their link

  http://www.broadbottomvillage.com/history%20servants.htm
 
I have also made a post on rootschat for assistance with dating the photos, here is the link

Hi.
In the 1881 census, my GG Grandad David Aspinall (born 1851, Glossop, Derbys) lived at Hill End with his family, wife Sarah (nee Hazeldine, born 1846ish) and their children, Harriet Ann (1878) and Herbert (1881) David was listed as a domestic gardener.
His older Brother Abel (1846) also lived at Hill End and was a domestic gardener. His wife Maria (1849) her son John Archer Aspinall (1873), Walker Aspinall (1873) Alice Aspinall (1875) James Jesse Aspinall(1878) Ellen Aspinall (1880) were with him.

The ladies who lived at Hill End House at the time were Ann Chapman, widow,(aged 72) and her daughter Alice (aged 37)

I think the pictures are from earlier than this, unfortunately.  Cry  I would have loved for one of those people to be `mine`.

Thanks for the info about the website  Smiley

I will have a look at the website you mention.
