The first picture shows some quartz in the same piece as the next two? which are of a fossil clump, hard to pick out a specific kind...
the next row: the roundish one near the cig box looks like weathered coral, you've got some agate/chalcedony . . .
bottom row: looks like quartz, and a clump of fossilized clams

this is just a rough answer from an amateur to tide you over til the experts chime in...

Pics 1-3 look to be a conglomerate of silicate sand and stones. Pic 5 shows the stones in other pictures, the one on the left shows the eroded host rock that the quartz crystals, almost a massive formation, formed in. The host rock appears to be a limestone. The next rock from the left with the white banding is what I'll call an almost agate... looks like it started to form as an agate but conditions changed and the interior filled with quartz crystals and is now a filled geode. Top next and the group of jagged rocks to the right are quartz and quartzite minerals. The little round one next to the large round one center may be a rough agate due to the banding.
The flat stone in the next two pictures appears to be a bit of sedimentary stone~ possibly lime or sand stone with some weathering. The last pictures are a conglomerate formation of what maybe river rocks.
A mixed bag of stuff.
