Hi,
Can anyone help me to identify these succulent plants. I am new to succulent's and the plant's that I bought does not have any labels. I do not even know where to begin in order to search the internet for identifications eg. what family ect ect.

You seem to be very interested in succulent identification; are you familiar with the Cactus & Succulent Society of America?
https://www.cssainc.org
There are over 80 affiliated chapters of the CSSA, many of them in other countries. There was a list of publications available; at least some of them must be identification guides.
The common names like "hen and chicks" or "Mexican rose" may be applied to several varieties of succulent; however, those varieties may have different scientific names. Someone else's "hen and chicks" may not be the same as mine.
Even Sunset is careful to draw the distinction between:
--Hen and chickens. See SEMPERVIVUM tectorum.
--Hen and chicks. See ECHEVERIA.
And there are hundreds of varieties of succulents, some specific to one locale.
