I think type 3 and maybe 2 are probably a Prunus avuim or cerasus
Type 1 does look like Morus as Mark suggests. Check you r fig fragments for more Morus seeds.
Type 7 - possibly a Prunus?
Type 8 - no idea
Type 5 - maybe also a Prunus avium/cerasus type but do check Crataegus for all the cherry like ones - it is hard to tell from the photos. The broken ones are consistent with Prunus rather than Crataegus.

Subject: help with identificationa
Hello,
I was wondering if anyone has time to scan over the attached photo's.
Some are probably too poor to identify from the photos, but any help would be appreciated. The assemblage is very fruity and includes things like Prunus kernals and fig (bits of the fruit as well as the seeds).
Thank-you,
Alys
