Is there more info for these clues than we have here... for 2 for example do we know its an actor (so Robert Preston may be ok) or could it be  a singer Johnny Preston (' running bear') or one of many other Prestons.

All the other clues & answers look good

^ meant Leyton not Layton

We only know that they are famous people, unless it says in the clue what profession they belong to we have no idea sorry
