Given your location,
Photo 1 is likely Hydrocotyle sibthorpioides
Photo 2 looks like a snippet of Myriophyllum aquaticum
#3 I need to think about.

Is that last one some type of Rotala?

#3: Ludwigia palustris? Depending on growth conditions sometimes I see it with those narrow plain green leaves, rather than the wider leaves with reddish or coppery pigment that we usually see.
Where did you collect them? As with fish ID, location is a big help.

I collected them from a bog that feeds into Blackwell swamp which is just south of the Huntsville Alabama Airport

#3 looks very similar to Hygrophila polysperma, the invasive exotic Indian Waterweed. But I'm no expert.
