Trying to ID this tree

I've seen quite a few of these trees around the local area. One in my neighbor's yard lost a big branch and I cut it up for firewood. I did not see any fruits or nuts on this tree.

Does anyone know what this is? Thanks!

That's a Hackberry; known to be a source of good firewood. It burns reasonably hot with few sparks, is easy to split, and has very little smoke.
