All look like different types of what I believe are called Cellar spiders - please correct me if I am wrong.

The last is a shed skin of a baby -- the first birthday suit? You can even see into the holes left when the legs were pulled out. The top of the cephalothorax pops off like a lid, and is to the upper right. Spiders are odd in that they shed their skins when they leave the egg sac, soon after hatching.

Thank you relbugman, I didn't know that but since reading your comment I have been learning a little about it on the web. It says that sometimes they even change inside the egg sac - that must be a struggle. Everyday something new to learn. Thanks again.

Thanks Bob, I need to do some more research on these to sort out the species in more detail so, at least, I know the local ones.
