David,

It looks like it may be the biggest.  In our records we have (that I can find):

MTSF, MA                 E. Hophornbeam    78.5' high   2.3' cbh
Erie County PA            E. Hophornbeam    78.8' high   1.8' cbh     

National 

Ivy River, NC                                            Circumference 70"  
Big Fork Ridge, Cataloochee, GIMP      Height        89.7 feet 
 

It looks like this tree would be fatter than any other in the NE, and perhaps 
the tallest overall if its height matches the girth.I can't really tell but the 
girth does not look as big as the Ivy River tree.  Could you get some 
measurements for it?
