Close up on the bar would help. Even a blurry one. But, from this distance, the second to last one looks like a Hanseatic Cross -Bremen and the last one, Braunschweig Order or Hannover Guelphic-Order, but all of this is REALLY guessing.

the shoulder dressing. He sure put on his old-world finery for this photo.

Interesting wearing precedence. he wears the Hansa in the penultimate place-AFTER the LS cross and before the Portuguese medal. His medal bar will be easy to identify if it ever comes to market.

The last one is a Swedish Vasa order, Knight 2nd cl. A pre-WW1 award.
