On first guess it looks like Ailanthus altissima - Tree-of-heaven

If it stinks when you cut it, that's it  :)

Hmmm. I think Ailanthus altissima is unlikely, since it has pale-colored, ring porous wood (much like an ash), and your sample has orangish wood that appears to be diffuse-porous. My guess would be buckthorn (Rhamnus cathartica) for both wood #2 and wood #3.

I think Dodgy is right on both #2 and #3.  :)
