ProSevice, from the look of the form of the tree I would say American Elm (Ulmus americana). Without seeing the bark, buds, and twig arrangement, it is impossible to confirm Here is a simple ID site from a google search on tree identification Tree Identification

There are literally hundreds of site to help you identify trees. The best way is to search "trees of _______(your state)". Don't feel bad about the photo, an arborist wanted input on a hazard tree beside a house with WORSE pictures than yours!

The strips on the tree, assuming it is an elm, is bacterial slim flux. It is not unusual to see that in that particular species.
