Old Lock, and bells

[Old River]

Was invited to look around in an old privately owned property today. Found the lock in the where a couple 1800's graves was located. The pennys were 1934, 42, and 57. The nickle is a 1957. Don't know anything about the little bells, They were dub near the old gravesites. The round pin was also in that area.

That lock is an extremely cool find River. I had the same thought as mrtuff about the bells. Probably not the case but creepy to think about!
