I dug these up at the Stewart Malloy house and can't figure out what they are. The home was a farm for decades, dating back to the 1700's. It hasn't been a farm for several decades as well, I'm guessing the mid 1900's.

Here are the shots. I've no idea what these are.
This one is about 11" across at the widest point. One side is flattened by design. The inner hole is toothed like a gear. It's heavy.
This is a group shot. The two identical bottom right pieces were found in different parts of the yard about 10" down. They are around 12" in length and have a narrower side at the bottom, the longest side. I'm guessing some kind of tractor part, but I don't know.
The top center looks like a mushroom with a wide base and two bolt holes. The base was shaped like an eye, rounded at the ends, but has been broken. I'm not as interested in this one as much, but a clue would be good.
The bottom left I'd love to identify. It looks like a saddle at the top of a curved metal bar with holes at the ends. Here's a close up.
These I know are the heads from garden hoes, but I thought I'd throw them in for fun. One was found back in the woods that used to be a field. The others were found around the house. Three were 10" down, the more intact one is more modern looking and was only about 6-8" down.
