If you're not set on those particular varieties, but are looking to grow heirloom fruits, Thomas Etty sells a variety of heritage melon seeds including:
Ananas (Pineapple)
Blenheim Orange
Black Rock
Charentais
and Petit Gris de Rennes (400 years old variety!)

The firm specialises in heritage flowers, fruit and veg and have various interesting bits of information like a list of plants from c 1440 (The Feate of Gardening).

The site's worth a read for its own sake, even if you don't buy any seeds from there!  Not sure if I can post a link, but they're easy enough to google.

Sorry I can't help with info on the ones you mention...
