The number #3 with the US on it is part of horse tack

Like Gare said, #3 is a bit boss for a horses bridle. Because it says U.S., it is military and probably from WW1 or WW11. That is a nice military find.
 

I found one just like #3 that is Civil War bridle bit boss.
 

Nice job finding the church site! The brown jewelry might be a topaz ring setting.

I think #2 is an ornate collar stud (would have gone through two holes at top of a mans high collared dress shirt) and would be a victorian era artifact 1880s or so). I might be wrong for sure but hope this helps.
