Not sure on the types, you're out of my area. Nice finds though. Either you are on a great site or you have a ginormous garden! Only thing I find in my garden is bugs!

wrenchmandan, welcome to the board. I wish I had a garden I could find points in. lol

In your first picture, from left to right, I would say a LeCroy Bifurcate, a Kirk Stemmed, this one's hard to say but most likely a Palmer, the next one is a Stanly, not really sure on this one but it looks Woodland while all the others look Archaic, and the last one might be a Morrow Mountian.

That's my take on your points but if our resident Virginia expert, Ghost Recon, will take a look he might say different.

Here's a decent site for IDing points.

I'd say Steve gave you a good appraisal there, I think the first from the left may be a Stanley, and the fourth could be a Culpepper bifurcate, maybe even Kirk, but agree with Steve on the rest, just my best guess , I 'm no expert though. Good to see some other Va. finds around here, good luck on that garden spot.

Wow! Maybe you should consider digging and sifting your garden. You may find some historic items too.

Nice finds! I'm not familiar with VA points, but I do know that the Jetta type has a very limited range down in Central Texas, so it's not one of those. Welcome to the forum.
