Help! Unburied bicycle. Looking for identification!!!

-
UPDATE: I apologize in advance for the lack of pictures, and the poor quality. It was nearly dark for the first two and completely dark for the last. In addition to that my phone died while taking one. I know there is at least one bicycle other than the three that I have parts big parts of unburied, but I’m not entirely sure there isn’t 5 bikes all together. Here is what I have dug up. Any info on what the kids bike is? The quill looks like a Sears/JC Higgins(I have a 54 JC with that quill) but idk about the rest. Too bad someone tossed all these and didn’t just stick them in a barn somewhere to be forgotten til I came along haha. The other I have no idea about. All I know is that it is a skiptooth sprocket. Any ideas? The rear dropout looks 20s.

First one is an AMF late '50s-early '60s.
Hi Adam. In this thread I am interested in how you determined the approximate manufacturing year. I’m looking at a AMF Shelby Skyrider with this same chainring. I’m wondering whether this chainring predated the chainring with stars or the star chainring was earlier; my sense is that the stars were after the “swirly” (Roadmaster) chainring. Any information would be greatly appreciated, thanks. Steve
