#1,5 Purple Finch

#2 looks good for Alder/Willow.

#3 Maybe a Cape May Warbler? Have any more photos of it?

#4 Yellow-rumped Warbler

#6 Eastern Phoebe

#7 Red-eyed Vireo

#8 Nashville Warbler
 
Agree with Falcon, but #3 is a Blackburnian Warbler; the pale braces on the scapulars is rather distinctive, and it also shows a bit of a pale central crown stripe.

I didn't even think of Blackburnian Warbler. But, that's exactly what it is!

And yes, the pale braces on back are unique among warblers.
