This one with the split leaves is related to the thistle plant. It is a weed and can be pulled or dug up...use gloves it may have stickers on the stem. Am not sure about the others!
It's a weed. Needs to be dug up.
Hello. Looks like this ? Perhaps you might confirm exact identity here.

weed.....
And I agree with my fellow Home Talkers. It's definitely a weed. When you pull it be sure to grab it down where it meets the soil. You'll have a better chance of removing the roots at the same time. If the roots are left behind, it will grow back for sure. Good luck Andrea. Hope all is well with you.
Thank you all-so appreciate the response. Have determined it is a marsh thistle which has yellow dandelion looking flowers eventually. Again thank you!!
