The last object looks like an umbrella part to me.

Edited to add: Nope looks too thick to be an umbrella part.

The screw piece looks to be a Civil War soldier's 'field carved' piece of lead used as a tompion. If you give us the diameter, that could be helpful in determining whether it was used as a tompion or not. The ring is from an antique umbrella, perhaps CW era. Neat finds, Breezie

The brass one is certainly a parasol/umbrella piece. I've dug hundreds of them.

I think you're right. It's about 3 inches long and maybe an inch or 3/4 of inch thick.

Any ideas on the projectiles in the first picture?
