The first one may be an ear ring.

I dont know the size of the last item but it looks like 2 halves of a powder flask.

My thoughts exactly about both. And I agree with child's ring.

I took some pics of a tape measure next to the third item Bigcypresshunter. Both sides measure 6 inches in length.

Thanks ,

Agreed, powder flasks. Smaller ones were often for priming powder to prime the pan, which was different than the rifle powder. Sometimes for boot pistols or derringers.

Oddly enough, I agree with the brass monkey theory. That's what it looks like to me! Monty

Those are some ugly earrings or whatever they are. I have seen them before; I think maybe here at TN. Look closely for any markings.
