+1 for butternut

Pat B:
Bitternut hickory and butternut are 2 different trees. Butternut is genus Juglans and hickory is genus Carya. They are in the same family but different genera.

I considered walnut because there is a lot in the state, but the leaf pattern on the stem is different. Walnut leaves are staggered on the stem, where they’re directly opposite on the tree in question? Here is a picture of some walnut leaves.

Pat B:
Looking through the Audubon tree guide for the Eastern US, it looks like a pumpkin ash., looking at the leaf and bark. Also, all of the trees with pinnate compound leaves, the leaflets are opposite. The only one with alternate leaflets is yellow wood(Cladrastis kentukea). BTW...these are pinnate compound leaves, the whole structure is a leaf , stem and all with leaflets.

Thanks Pat. I’m definitely not a tree guy, but trying to figure out if these are selfbow candidates.
