The bottom two in this list are by British "grand manner" painters. Joshua Reynolds, Thomas Lawrence, Gainsborough or George Romney, most likely. Shouldn't be too hard to find.

It's a Prince! Which one?

Perhaps - Prince Charles Louis?

Thumbs up Help in identifying

You guys are impressive -thanks for your help and links -I presume they have only nominal values as prints on a wood backing.
Thanks again for info -I see them in a completely different light now
