The first one looks very much like a trilobite eye.

The third is possibly Hederella.

 

Thank you! The first was found in a rock with brachiopods, horn corals, crinoids, and a trilobite. The third is Devonian so that kind of bryozoan is very possible:)

That fits nicely. :) (Note that Hederella is no longer thought to be a bryozoan.)

+1 for trilobite eye, second one looks typical of burrowing of the rock by bivalves. Third could also be a segment of Callograptus, BUT the nature of the branching makes me think Hederella cf. filiforis. 

 

The next one, as others have previously suggested in your other thread on this fossil, is a bit of exposed atrypid brachiopod - the rest is buried. 

 

The final one is an imprint of a rugose coral, in my opinion. More angles required, though!

 

Nice finds.
