Are these trade beads?

Found these at the same site along the Ct River where I found my broken 1600's Dutch chevron bead. Are these trade beads or modern? They feel like glass or ceramic.

I do not think that they are, especially the red one. The larger round ones usually had a flat ground surface at the openings of the face of the holes.

I don't think those are trade beads, like old digger said, the red one for sure is not.
