Any tree nerds?

My new lot has several dead ash trees, I want to know what kind of trees I have and if any others need treated for Ash Borer.

Unknown ID? Tree trunks behind it

Another tree I'd like ID'd



Anyone help? What I want to be 100% sure of is that the first and third leaf photos are not from
Ash trees that I need to treat, but I'd like to know what they are as well.

If it's any help, they are native trees to Central Indiana, not planted by builders or developers, allegedly.
 
Nobody?
 
You may try the local library for a tree book. They often have great visual pictures and sketches which mitigate the need to understand tree vocabulary (lobes, nuts, fruit, etc.).

For what it's worth, if ash borers went through already the trees in question would be dead if the borers liked them. That ash looks like it's been dead at least 2-3 years.

That was my thought as well but I've heard that they spare smaller trees, and a couple smaller trees have the same leaves as the dead ash (some growth is coming out of the trunks on a few of them, very little though and it's definitely coming from the dead trunk of an obviously infected ash borer ash tree
