McCormick Deering could be the manufacturer. This plow clevis looks to be for a horse drawn plow, most likely a walk behind plow.
I agree, Its definitely from a walking plow. McCormick was another thought as well as Oliver. The patent date is 1878, there is an "L" and "160" marked on it as well.
Could the cooperative extension in your area identify this ?
this looks very old and like it was very useful once.
The patent date is 1878. So yes very old.
I read these plows could turn 2 acres a day and that was progress : )
Possibly John Deere:

That's what I was thinking as well, JD/Syracuse. It's a little different than the one on EBAY, but still a 6 hole adjustment clevis.
It is difficult to find out who made this Horse Drawn Walking Plow Clevis (1878). As far as I know, McCormick used marking like here (see attached screenshots): www.ebay.com/
