Well, there is evidence for the Exodus in Egyptian records, pretty clear stuff too.

Solomon, there's evidence from several sources.

Current scholarly thinking is that Abraham was some sort of elder in the Hebrew tribes during the time period that they traveled from Mesopotamia to Egypt, long before the Exodus. Just happens to be no historical records confirming any of this. And given how long and isolated of a trek that was, that makes sense.
