All held the Ring at some point?

You're on the right track. I can hardly say more without giving it away.

They all used the ring?

"wore" would be a better term. bombadil didn't actually use it, the way the Ring is meant to be used--to turn invisible.

Many people besides the four I listed did hold, use or wear the Ring. There is something quite unique concerning these four people and the Ring (though a fifth person might arguably be added to the list).

What about the fact that they willingly gave the ring to somebody else when they had it?
