I can see this as a blacksmith made possibility. Measure the gap in this wrench and compare it to a nipple diameter.
Rather ungainly for that purpose.

It looks to me a wood cook stove thingy used to lift the plates/element up to the place you stuff wood into. Sorry I don't know the names.

OK guys it’s been a while but I’m perplexed What is a Slidell tool for I found it in an Indian Shellmound where I have found in the end tomahawks as well as 1812 buttons and coins I know it’s not that old because of the notch I don’t know does anybody know?
That's a glass cutter,. It is bent and missing the two rowels, but that's what it is. Not sure how old, but you had a window maker or worker, perhaps even an artist there!

Maybe it was left behind by a archaeologists they went through a lot but I’ve proven they missed a lot to
