Numbers on a table in the article on the Royal Horse Guards in Wikipedia, which does not have an appropriate citation, says that on 1 July 1897, the Royal Horse Guard had 406 members and the Total Household had 1,234.[1] The total number of the Royal Horse Guards may have been 60–70 less because some were under-aged or trainees.[1] The regiment was called The Blues beginning in 1877.

Positions in the Queen's Household, according to David Cannadine,
were not the great offices of state such as Lord High Constable or Earl Marshal, which were held by grandees and were largely honorary. Nor were they political appointments such as Lord Chamberlain or Lord-in-Waiting, which changed with every government. Rather, they were the full-time court offices such as Private Secretary, Keeper of the Privy Purse, Master of the Ceremonies, and Comptroller of the Household, or the more humble positions of Equerry or Lady-in-Waiting. From the 1870s onwards, the nature and importance of these offices was transformed. Sir Henry Ponsonby effectively created the post of Private Secretary to the Sovereign in its modern guise. ... The new imperial and ceremonial image of the monarchy required planning and organization on an unprecedented scale. The palaces, pictures, libraries, and archives of he sovereign needed extensive reform and restoration in the aftermath of late-Victorian neglect. The extended families of Victoria, Edward VII, and George V meant a proliferation of junior royal households which themselves needed to be staffed and administered. And the inevitable result, despite occasional attempts at economy, was an expanding royal bureaucracy. ...
Almost invariably, such positions were filled by close relatives of peers.[2]:245
Master of the Household: Cannadine says, "Lord Edward Pelham Clinton was brother of the sixth Duke of Newcastle, and was Master of the Household from 1894–1901."[2]:245
