Can anyone help with these ones? I've attached pictures of the leaves.

Number 1:




Number 2; in the spring, this has the most beautiful pink blossom:




Number 3:




Number 4:




Number 5:




Number 6:




Number 7:




Number 8; an apple tree of some kind:


 

Thank you for your help and wisdom!

You need to post your location to help.
1 and 4 look the same.  No idea.
3 I'd say black locust.
7 looks like it could be big tooth aspen.
Others no idea.
Interested.

Here is my take:

1.  A birch
2.  Some type of fruit tree, not sure which.
3.  Black locust
4.  Another birch
5.  Sugar Maple
6.  ?
7.  Bigtooth aspen
8.  I agree with apple

   I'm guessing a Rhododendron for #6 since it seems still undefined.

#6 looks like a Camellia to me.

I should probably have stated: I'm in North Yorkshire, England.

Thanks for your inputs so far - really interesting! How possible is it that number 2 is a cherry blossom?

How possible is it that number 2 is a cherry blossom?

#2 does look a lot like Prunus Avium which is a common ornamental cherry, with some fancy flowering blossom versions.

I am with Ian on #2.  Most likely sweet cherry.

   I'm still wondering why #5 is not an oak. Lobes don't look to me much like any maple I am familiar with.

    Yes, #2 looks like our wild sweet cherry we call Blackheart cherry. Tasty but small. Wood not as dark as wild Black cherry.

#5 looks to me like field maple Acer campestre

#2 kanzan cherry does it have a mostly smooth gray/silver bark ?

Howard, the venation in maple is palmate while in oaks, it is pinnate.  The venation of the leaf in the pic is palmate (radiating out from a central point).
