Default Tall deciduous - ID?

In my woods, most of the tallest tree seem to be of one species; unfortunately, I don't know what. Within the mix of sugar maples, there are a few dozen rather tall (>130 ft) trees, which have thin leaves and fissured trunks. Below are a few pictures - any help with identifying them would be appreciated.

Need a closeup of the leaves, but the bark looks like a variety of Ash (Fraxinus sp). Has a pinnately compound leaf, so a photo needs to show all the leaflets, not just one.

I am certain that it is an ash, but not certain as to whether or not it is a white ash.

As was delved into in a another thread, ashes are hard to tell apart. I am fairly sure it is not blue or black or european -- and it is likely green or white -- but need pics of seeds (samaras). They should be falling soon, and pics of compound leaves, and if you can the twigs and the buds. Eden Keeper might have be able to tell from your photos, but I cannot.,
