Greetings,
Your first beetle from Portland is a silphid beetle: Silphidae: Nicrophorinae: Nicrophorus defodiens Mannerheim
Your second, from Texas, is also a silphid: Silphidae: Nicrophorinae: Nicrophorus carolinus (Linnaeus) - in my experience, this is not a very common species
The third is an introduced species of ground beetle: Carabidae: Carabinae: Carabus nemoralis O.F. Muller
Hope this helps...
Cheers!
Bandrow
