It appears to me, after looking at these photos quite closely as well as taking a good look at the Google Earth imagery, that the Princeton and Bayton are still there, exactly where they were left within the breakwall.
The Charles Hubbard appears to have been mostly scrapped on site. In Mr. Lafferty's photo below, you can see a crane working on, what appears to be, the dismantling process of the Hubbard in 1968. How much of it was scrapped is unknown; there are likely pieces of it still there as evidenced by the 1974 photo.
The others are likely at least partially scrapped; they took the easy stuff and left the hard stuff then buried them where they were.
