Bob, I work right in Concord N.H. If you email me the address of the black Gum 
tree, I can try to get some photos of it for the ENTS site.

Jennie, 

The oldest we know of is a black Gum near Concord, NH. When it was cored it was 
determined to be 679 years old. That was at least 5 years ago. Giving it a 
couple of year to reach core height, today it is about 686 years old.

Quick question.  How old is the oldest known tree in New England, what
is it and where is it located?  I know I have the answer somewhere in
my notes, but I can't seem to find it.

Thanks,
Jennie
