I own volume 2 of Velvel's "Songs of the Chassidim" and out of 210 tunes from
both the Besht and Chabad branches he only has one of your tunes you list: 3
versions of Ani Mamin. The first one is the one most people have sung at
Holocaust observances, by Fastag, but two others - one by Parnes, the other
by Stockhommer - are quite beautiful. Actually I have found many many tunes
in this book for hora medleys or tish nigunim. What's nice about this volume
(and there are two) is that there are explanations of where they come from
and their uses and text meanings.
Good luck finding the others!
