So who are these Eight Taoist Immortals?

I've copied this from the internet:

#1: CHUNG-LI     Ch'uan is said to have discovered the Elixir of life.  His symbol is the peach, an emblem of longevity.  He is also depicted as carrying a fan with which he could revive the dead.

#2: CHANG KUO LAO     A recluse with mystic powers.  He is said to have had a mule that could carry him a thousand miles in a day, which he could fold up like a piece of paper and put in his wallet.  When again required he had simply to sprinkle it with water and it resumed its normal proportions.  His symbols are a musical instrument made of bamboo, called the Yu Ku, and the feather of the Phoenix, the bird of immortality.
