What are all these feet??

I inherited my grandmother's 1990's Singer sewing machine which came with a bunch of scary lookin feet and things. What are all these and how do I use them?? LOL

I would help to know what model of machine these come from. Some old machines didn't do anything more than straight stitch. I could be wrong but it looks like you might have a cording foot, a darning foot, a ruffler, a zipper foot (maybe more than one kind?), a special zig-zag foot or applique foot... Do any of them have uneven bottoms, etc? I just realized, I know a more about sewing than quilting which is a really funny statement. I am so new to quilting it takes me forever to complete a block.

Picture 1 Center foot looks like a gathering/pleating foot, with additional plate to the left of it. To the right of the pleater is a rolled hem foot. Looking at the plastic feet, it looks like the one on the left is a 1/4" foot.
Picture 3 looks like a piping foot
Picture 4 is a zipper foot.
I found this site which might help you.

The one in your hand, fourth picture is a zipper foot. I like it better than the new ones because you can loosen the bar and slide the foot over to sew the other side of the zipper without taking the foot off. You would need an adapter to use the clear, snap on feet.
