Chronologies

Nick Fury,
He appears here after Theater of War America First (1956) and before the Secret Warriors #25-26 flashback occurring in 1961 (missing from the current chronology).
I don't know when M/:LG 9 and M/:LG 10 take place but I think it's close to modern times (late 20th century)
Same for W/NF-FB

Gabe Jones
after SGTF@ 1 (Korea War)
FURY 1-FB-BTS (not sure when this takes place)
before AC 4/2 (start of the modern era, Gabe Jones checks that Rogers is indeed the wartime Cap after he unfroze)

Dum Dum Dugan
after SGTF@ 1 (Korea War)
FURY 1-FB-BTS (?)
before FF@ 3 (modern era)

Sabretooth
I'm unfamiliar with this character's back story and there thirty flashbacks

Dominic Fortune
after M/PRM 56 which occurs in 1938 from what I recall (and I'm surprised to see it so late in the chronology)
before M/TU 120 which occurs in modern time

Missing from the chrono is the 2009 Dominic Fortune mini-series (set in the 1930s)

Namora,
The relevant chrono is this part:
SUB-MARINER COMICS 42 (1955, last Golden Age appearance)
CV2 1 (1953 flashback, out of place?)
M/:LG 2 (1958 from what I recall)
ATLAS 1-FB (don't know when this takes place)
{SUB-M 33-FB}
N 20-FB (don't know when this takes place)
M/:LG 3 (1961?)
SUB-M 51-FB
SUB-M 50 first appearance in modern era but in flasback

There are also flashback stories of the Agents of Atlas to take into account.

Kraven,
The relevant part is this one but I don't know when any of these flashbacks occur:
ASM 389-FB
ASM 375/4-FB
SENSM '96-FB
[WOSM2 7-FB]
[WOSM2 7]
S-M 50/2
SENSM '96 (modern era, just before ASM15)

Ulysses Bloodstone
M/U 4-7 (in 1958 ?)
M/:LG 2 (1958)
add: New Avengers Vol 2 #9-12 FB (1959)
add: Strange Tales 73 (Feb 1960)
add: Tales of Suspense 9 (May 1960)

NW:AOH 8 (7:1 - 7:4)-FB (as father to Elsa Bloodstone, so late 20th century)


Ernst Sablinova
No idea when the flashbacks take place in his chrono

Red Skull
This is not the original but might be a previously seen Nazi imposter. It's not Malik the communist Red Skull.

Captain America
This is the only appearance of this one. He recognizes Fury though so he might have founght him before.

M/:LG 9 took place in 1980 and M/:LG 10 took place in the early 1980s.

The Secret Warriors #25-26 flashbacks take place circa Fantastic Four #1 (which was published in 1961), not in 1961-absolute.

How do you figure that out?
There's no reference to FF #1 and there are 1961 indicators.

Thanks, So I guess Count Von Blitzkrieg and the others are from past comics. I'll search for their names. It's likely the writer took characters from a reference work, like a handbook. Is there one that lists Nazis?

Not necessarily. Some were, some were not, at least as far as I can tell.

The handbook writers were asked if they could supply a list of Nazis who could have been around post-war, for use in the Avengers 1959 stories. Kron/Krone and Leopard Woman were on it, which is why I know where they appeared before. Not everyone on the list was used, and the writer also used others who were not on the list - some of those would presumably have been original creations.
