Studying some things. May I post the one I found? I have no doubt that "yours are paleo". I wonder if the first one is a Dalton what I can not figure out are the flutes on the second one.
Great items both of them Tree.
I think it's possible that second piece is a Cumberland. I'm not sure about Beaver Lake on the first, check out Candy Creek's, an early woodland type found in Tn. that have a similar form as Beaver Lake, Cumberland, Dalton, etc. but have random woodland flaking. To make them even more confusing the bases can be ground, and even fluted. It is believed that paleo people survived in parts of Tn. into the early woodland 3000bc, and influenced types like Candy Creek.

I have been reading about this........ Like lost pockets of Paleo type people for another 5000 years as times marched on.... Wild.

I think it's really interesting. I've been scouring the net trying to find more info on it, if you find a page let me know. You know there are other Tn. types from the woodland period that have paleo forms. Points like Copena, Greenville, Nolichucky. Don't know if there's a connection, makes you think. Tree I've got a couple Beaver Lakes that I'll post here if you think it would help, let me know.
ya id like to see them, the top point came from a shelter ive been digging.. it has had mainly woodland stuff, epps, hamilitons,stemmed hamiltons come out of it. that point came from the opposite side of the shelter. ive not dug that side since then. not had time and now its so wet and thick its gonna be hard to sift. it was about 2 ft down near the mouth of the shelter.
