I have no clue about paper currencies. What are these things valued at? I would hope more than 50 bucks! I bought all three for $70. IMG958091.jpg
The 10 says first national bank of Grafton with an S mint I believe?
 

I don't know a whole lot about paper money but I would venture to say if you spent $70 you did pretty well.. I would have paid $70 for them.. Nice finds
 

Oh yeah....the 10 is a 1919
and both the 20s are 1914
 

The bottom two are Federal Reserve Notes, series of 1914 (as noted above) printed in Cleveland and signed by White and Mellon. There are two types of this bill (sorry, I don't know the difference) but I can tell you that catalog retail values for that bill , by type, were $90 and $115 in 2008; and $160 and $225 in 2010--in very fine condition. Though yours do not come up to that level of condition, these values still show that you made a great buy. Congrats.

you can put these on ebay and double the face value. lots of people looking for cheap page fillers or entry level collecting.
 

Pre-1928 Large Size paper is always desirable. I'm not too sure about the $10, but the two $20s would do well on eBay.
