Hi Lee. As the web administrator says, you have several very nice pieces from the 1820s and 1830s, and they certainly do have value. I wonder too about restoration on a couple of pieces but it's so hard to tell from a photograph. Anyway, they're mostly patterns that would be familiar to collectors. The first plate is Boston State House, by John Rogers. Don't know the creamer or the chinoiserie vase, but the second plate is Landing of Lafayette, produced to commemorate his visit to the U.S. in 1824. The reticulated fruit bowl is a pattern known as Waterfall in the U.K., though I think most collectors in this country know it by the apparently erroneous name Falls of Killarney. The next cup and saucer is Water Girl, by James and Ralph Clews. The tureen is in the standard Willow pattern, which nearly every potter in Britain produced it seems. The ladle of course does not match but is a very nice piece all on its own. The last cup and saucer is in a pattern known as Virginia Church, by Joseph Heath. Hope this helps. Len
