If i might respectfully point out Punal, you are looking for quite a bit of information about a number of swords based on rather vague photographs. Might i suggest that in order to avoid confusion and be able to provide more accurate information that you present these blades one at a time with better, more detailed photographs. I can tell you that the next to last one in the group photo (L to R) looks to be an example of what are sometimes referred to as "archaic" style keris that Cato assumed were 18th century swords.
BTW, the nature of the word provenance makes it somewhat difficult for any of us to provide for you. Provenance generally comes along with the piece itself. It might be an inscription of presentation on the sheath, a date engraved on the blade or a letter that supports the origin of the object. Something that proves date or origin. That would be very difficult for any of us to provde.
