Could someone help identify these items? I’m not as knowledgeable as I would love to be and I am having no luck at figuring one of these out.

Your first photo looks like bedded sandstone, maybe, that had some help with it's final appearance. Third over, second row looks worked to me ( I'm not one of the experienced and expert people on artifacts, maybe they'll see your post ) then broken and beaten up. A bunch of cool curiosities, many look like desert recoveries. Stuff you'd find walking a dry creek bed. I'd be guessing on any ID's. Thnx for sharing. Nice collection.

Thank you for responding. A lot was found around the Cumberland River and I thought they was unique. Just thought I would check.
 

The one leaning against a glass looks like a broken tool and in the group picture there appears to be another worked piece 2nd from the bottom around 8 o’clock. The black flint maybe? the others with pits I suspect may be natural where a fossil seed or shell have fallen out leaving a pit the sandstone is interesting but not a tool type I’m familiar with.

Thank you! I know nothing about them so just wanted someone’s input.
 

Welcome. Most of your items are naturally shaped but interesting looking. Maybe a couple were worked on a little, hard to determine from pics. Keep looking.
 

As newman said most all are natural, below is one that looks like a tool based on just one picture.

It also helps greatly if you don't post a bunch at the same time instead make 2 threads and also show pictures from multiple angles when asking..

I was really wondering about the one that looks like it has the knob on top to hold with your hand. Is that naturally made or has someone sit by the river and carved that out? Thank you so much for taking the time to answer my post!

The pictures posted so far says natural erosion.
