Arthur Wightman's wife Edith Wightman (1850 - 1943) appears to be the figure sitting second from the right, wearing a dark-coloured hat and coat, stirring a tea cup. The lady pictured in the centre, sitting directly behind the young girl pouring the tea jug, appears to be Annie Maud Wightman (1854 - 1940), one of Arthur's sisters.

The identities of the other seven individuals in the photograph are unknown, but possibly include members of the Booth Family who occupied Leam Hall at this point in time.
