Looks like 2 species there? Hickory on the bottom

Looks a lot like ash to me. A close up of the end grain would help.

Ash are the ones on the bottom of the pile. My first reaction is soft maple, more likely a red maple. Tree bark looks a lot different in different growing conditions and areas of the country.

I know the bottom is ash
The top one with the shaggy bark is the one in question

My vote is Pignut Hickory. Looks a lot like ash when cut. All the best, Rob.
