The second is, I believe a Roger Fenton photo. (will get back to you on this one when I have dug out the details)
The third is Sgt Major Edwards, Scots Fusilier Guards c.1856 also by Cundal.
Hope these details are of some interest and use to you. Regards Jeff
PS : Cannot find any info re the 39F group, sorry....but I am sure I have seen it before...I guess it could be Cundal again after all ?? (will continue looking). Many thanks for sharing these superb images with us. Jeff
