Like choo said, it's an Archaic Side Notch Point. They are called by many other names like Big Sandy, Hemphill, Godar, Osceola, etc, but all you need to know is Archaic Side Notch.

Shame the Ashtabula in the last pic has the tip broke off. That would have been a nice one.

on the center point of the top image, is the base ground? It looks like a godar to me, or a similar variety.
See URL http://www.lithicsnet.com/godar.htm to help type the relics.

nice finds and color to them all, I agree with Big Sandy or maybe even a Sublet Ferry in the mid of the 1st pic.
