Steve, 

 

The branch structure looks like white ash.  The white ash is very common in
this area also.  Thanks for the info, I'll look at the leaf scars when I
can.

George-

It's really hard to say it it's green or white ash, but I would guess white.
If you can find a fallen twig beneath the tree, the leaf scars on it are
pretty indicative---white ash has a leaf scar with the bud above it quite
"dented" into it, on green ash the bud rests level or is just slightly
depressed.

ENTS, Steve,

 

I'm not sure if the attached tree is a green or white ash.  I will be using
this tree in the Rucker Index for Cedar Hollow Preserve, Pa., which I'll
post later.  I've tried several links but none have a good picture of mature
green ash bark.  Thanks.
