Hi guys. I'm looking for some more help identifying these Mazon Creek (Illinois) fossils. I think one is some sort of calamites? Thanks for your time.

Top one looks like a piece of Annularia and bottom is a piece of Calamites. Not sure what your first photo is.

Your first nodule looks like it could be Calamostachys, a Calamites seed cone. Here is a picture of mine on the bottom right side corner.
