I think they are domestic long hairs. The silver tabby one does look like and have a face similar to the old style Persians before they had flat faces.
Gorgeous kitties :D

What precious cats you have! 
  They are all beautiful, with amazing thick long coats, and the amber eyes look truely stunning with the black coat.  I do think they most closely resemble domestic long hairs, and agree with @GemsGem that your silver grey cat has a look of an older style Persian in the face.

All three seems to be quite short muzzled.  So my guess will be they are persian mixes of some sort.  Possibly even fairly pure persians old type, when their muzzles werent so super short.

Brits could be a possibility, but brits are rarely longhaired, so the main hypothesis must go along the persian trace.

Although technically they are domestic long hair, if we cant prove any nearer connection to persians.

Good luck!

Surely Brits have rounder faces? The silver tabby has got the persian look but not that awful flat face. The black is magnificent especially the tail. TThose eyes are a superb colour.

How long does it take you to brush them?

My entire family is comprised of cat lovers. So, they are literally ruling the house. We usually give them an hour or so grooming them.  Although penny hates it when we brush her hair so we have to keep feeding her something every time she lets us. Positive reinforcement. :D

Fuzzy the white one and Tobi the black one. They both have these ember eyes. Though Fuzzy is a bit sombre and Tobi is the energetic one.

I wish more people thought about pets before getting them. Unless you really love them and are willing to spend upon their health, I suggest DON'T GET THEM!

They are gorgeous.
My lotto was long haired and I really didn't look after it. In the summers, which is tremendously hot, I had him shaved. So soft after. Like velvet his body.
It will be a nightmare for me. If I ever have to shave one of my babies. :(

Id say the silver tabby is defiantly a Persian mix. the other two might be ragdolls.. they don't seem to be large enough to be maincoon..

It was easier for me and he didn't object. He was awake while he was being shaved.
Now I have 2 shirt haired.

I didn't set out to find a long haired kitty. He was dumped on me when he needs nt baby
My other cats were short hair.
