Sniper, thanks. Is there a good write-up someplace to tell me what I need to do to get them cleaned up/serviceable. I'm comfy cleaning them myself unless for some reason I need to take them someplace. Is there anything that I need to check on them?

Drop em off at a competent local gunsmith and ask him to do a thorough cleaning and inspection of them.
If there are any major problems he'll spot them.
Both #2 and #3 should be OK to fire +P+ rounds as long as they're in good shape and you restrict their usage to actual defensive purposes. They sell the hot +P+ rounds in 110, 125 and 158 gr i think. I haven't checked in a while, but i think the 158gr is ranked the highest by Sanow/marshall and they would definitely be Fackler's top pick in that caliber.
Use cheap-o ammo for range use.
#3 is actually a fully modern revolver.
The .32-20(#1) is quite obsolete, i wouldn't mess with that one other than to have it cleaned up and then put it in a drawer somewhere for your kids when they grow up. I reckon at
some point it will have some collectors value.
