This type of question is received on ThriftyFun quite often and I believe, rather than going over the same suggestions multiple times you should read some of the questions and answers from past postings.

Here is a site that has excellent suggestions.
You can always sort out your dolls and start checking each one on sold listings on eBay or Etsy or just Google to see what information you can find. It will probably take a lot of research time.
Leave it to you to come up with excellent advice! Yes, it's good to see what others have done, noting their wins and losses along the way.
Unless they vary in price greatly, sell them as a lot on eBay.
Building on cybergrannie's answer the most helpful things to do are:
1. Correctly identify the dolls
2. Look at eBay sold auctions to get a sold value (what people pay) for your exact dolls in their exact conditions
3. Decide if antiquecstore, online sales (eBay it Etsy) , flea market, consignment, Facebook/Craig's list sales are your best option or if finding a place to donate or share the dolls with a child in need is your best option
Doll values are all over the place, so until you know what you have, you can't decide your next steps. It may end up being a combination approach!
If you need help learning how to value, let me know! Remember, value and profit are different, as if you sell on eBay for example, your value is eaten away by fees to eBay and PayPal!
