All are extremely magnetic pic number 4 is of rock in pic one after sanding a small spot to expose the black burn under top layer
 

Meteorwrongs, sorry. :skullflag:
 

Terry is correct. None are meteorites.

Magnets will stick to many types of terrestrial rocks, so this characteristic alone is a starting point in the identification of meteorites. Most have a number of characteristics that can be referred to once you pick up a few guidebooks. I have several that go with me whenever I think I may be near an area that could have meteorites present.

Time for more coffee.
