Need help to ID badge collection.

I'm in the process of putting together a new display for our Legions badge collection. I would like to ID ever badge and catolog them. Any Information that anybody could give me on them would really help me out. There are over 50 badges, so I'll start with 10 and post more later. Sorry if the pics are alittle big.

Hello Lorne.....

Just to add to Mike's bang on reply. 9 of the badges are British. The only Canadian one is #8, The Irish Regiment of Canada.

Thanks for the help guys. They collection is about 50/50 British-Canadian, but i figured you guys wouldn't have any problems with that. i'll try to put the next 10 or so up tonight.

6. Royal Canadian Army Pay Corps, (again depending on size, either cap or collar)
7. Royal Regiment of Canada cap badge, very very worn
8. Corps of Military Staff Clerks, again depending on size, either cap or collar badge, NOTE: it is damageged as the right lower tip of the quill has been broken off
9. Canadian Artillery, (many different varieties, without references and more details of badge, I cannot narrow it any further)
10. Royal Canadian Army Dental Corps (as with many the others, size will determine cap or collar Badge)

What Legion are these going to be displayed in? Would love to see the finished product! I have been in some Legions with some great history on display.
