4 looks like a slightly worn Light Brown Apple Moth - Epiphyas postvittana.

You might be right. I get a few LBA's but they're half the size of this moth. Do they vary greatly in size? |

The markings look right to me for a LBA, maybe it just fed well as a larva?

I am tempted to think that number 3 is some sort of pyralid, eg. trachycera sp.
and i would agree with 2, celypha lacunana
