My kids found all 3 of these arrowheads over the weekend. We live near the Blanchard River in Northwest, OH. I know there were tribes around this area. Any info on these particular arrowheads? Thanks! 12718351_10207712124094422_357641808696617330_n.jpg12742239_10207712124054421_5362999029701599170_n.jpg12742394_10207712123974419_2559604645543695262_n.jpg12742711_10207712124014420_6559877940625093683_n.jpg12745561_10207712124134423_7755233915255466151_n.jpg

Is there a size reference? little out of my area. Looks like your kids did great!
 

The kid did great!!

The big one looks like a Thebes.

That was my thoughts. The other looks like a Kramer a little out of the area but not by much and the last little bifurcate Fox Valley?
I am sure the Grimm Reaper will know.

You DEF need to go back and hunt that area HARD!!!!! The THEBES is KILLER!!!! Where they creek finds or field?
 

Bruce, you are very close. That it is a Thebes, but doesn't look to be an actual E-Notch type. The Bifurcate is more than likely a LeCroy and not a McCorkle. McCorkles are bigger. The other piece is a Woodland type but not a true Snyders.
 

That point on the far left is outstanding. Congrats to the "youngins"
 

They are field finds. They found another one a day after I posted these. I'll get some measurements and post...

This is exactly what I was going to say too...bingo :thumbup:
 

Very nice. congratulations.

It's probably just me, but the "Thebes" looks unusual to me.

Here are some measurements and a couple of others they have found (1 was a few year's back...) Thank you for all of the input! My kids and I are fascinated by all of it. :icon_thumright:

These are MacCorkles. They are usually a large Bifurcate type and with larger ears.
